Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day!
Build a man a fire, and he will be warm for a night , Light a man on fire, and he will be warm for the rest of his life!

not bad....I'd try to plate it so I could use it for local transportation and off-roading if I had it.

I'm going to keep it all dirt, it too much BS in New Mexico to get street legal! Its easier to take them to Co and register them in your friends name then do the conversion, and plate it, then bring it back to NM.........yeah, too much BS. I'm going through that with the XR650R. this one is for my wife and boys to learn to ride.

Good starter bike. Just keep up on the basic maintenance and they will live through the torture of newb riders. That's why I love KDX's, tough, reliable bikes!

So after a little research, I could plate the KDX, would just take a frame w/bos. Of course if I go that route, Ill have to put the K5 motor in it! :-D

This whole "street legal" kx500 thing is so stupid and rediculous!!.......I'm just being a hater, don't mind me.  A street legal KDX500 would be something interesting.
