KX 500 Clutch Basket
« on: October 18, 2012, 03:40:07 PM »
Sorry for all the posts lately but I've been riding my bike alot more and really have the bug back.  I've been looking for clutch baskets and I know Hinson doesnt make them.  I emailed Talon and apparently they make nothing for KX 500's newer than 1998.  I would have thought the basket for an older model would have fit but not according to the email I received from Talon.

Thanks for your enquiry. Our listing only goes up to 1998 for the KX 500 so I can only assume the 99 is different. I tried to look into it a bit but not getting very far. Do you have the original basket still? I was thinking maybe if you can send me a few pictures of it with some dimensions I will be happy to see if It matches with anything we have on the shelf, bit of a long shot but worth a try.

 

Thanks

Any ideas for a new clutch basket besides stock?  Thanks everyone, what a great site we have here.   :-D

Mitaka billet baskets are sold in the UK and shipping was  not too bad.  I find them on ebay once and a while.

I figured they were the same, pretty much everything else is.  I think I'm just going to go with the Talon basket.
