Hello fellow kx riders! My name is scott and have been away from the board for a while. i used to have a 87 kx 500 and sold it last spring. I thought i was ready for the 250 2 stroke world. So i bought a newer aluminum framed 250 that was beautiful. From the first hit of the throttle headed down the trail i knew things were never going to be the same and all though i enjoyed the handling i never stopped missing the power of the big 500. And let me not forget to mention that sound of a crisply jetted open class beast! Well i made it through the season on my 250 and sold it in late sept. I took a little time to decide how to remedy the situation and decided to look for a newer 500. Well i found my new friend yesterday and brought it home. I am the extremely proud owner of a 2000 Kawasaki KX 500! It is completely stock with the only add on being an FMF Turbine Core spark arrestor. I feel like I am looking at a blank canvas and cant wait to get creating this winter! Sorry for being so long winded but i am very excited to be back!
as a side note. those of you thinking about dumping your big, heavy, hard to kick over 500 for the latest and greatest...... please make sure because nothing satisfies like a K5!
