Sup Bro's
« on: April 01, 2013, 09:50:14 AM »
Sup dudes.  Just traded some dank for  a sick ass 87 kx500 I want to setup for some freestyle. Its in rough shape,  the crank is rusty, and the bore is scraped up,  My Bro said to just slap some rings in it and go.    Any tips for suspension setup for freestyle?  What clicker positions should I set?

87 kx500 for freestyle?!.......I gotta see this!!

Good luck with your plans and there are plenty of brains on this site that can help you get the bike in tip top shape.
I once heard my buddy Bill ask Danny Hamel after a race....

Whut up Playa? You free ridin' around SanDank SOCAL? I just got done moddin my '88 K5 for huckin' sick gaps. The ramp to ramp hot setup gotta be ATF in the front, clickers maxxed. I'd Listen to your homey, and ring the fuq outta that hog. Get that rear fender cut, hole the airbox, and whip whip whip it flat! Post up some film Bra!

Thanks for the welcome Bra's.  ATF is the hot setup, kick ass, I have a bad fork seal, and this will be cheap to keep topping up the fork with.  Spray bombed the fawk out of the bike today. Looks sick as s**t. Tomarow Ill take a soldering iron to the plastics so i have some grab points for some sick trix.

Good grief. Free style on a K5? You got a death wish? Roll on the throttle toppin' the ramp and the crowd won't see you because you will be above the cloud layer! Welcome!

Dont forget these for the handlebars. 15-20% more airtime than stock
