Southern Hospitality
« on: March 29, 2013, 06:38:00 PM »
Hi Guys,

New on this Site, enjoy reading the threads ......

Time to post a pic of my 41 hr's only '04 KX500 .

I've owned the bike since new , V-force reed kit, FMF exit system front to back, Moose bars and frame protectors etc , but pretty much keeping it as original as I can because they're an extinct species now .

Hope you like  :wink:

Thanks for the nice feedback Guys,

One of the reasons it looks so 'new' is I noticed how the Tank decals started bubbling as soon as it even finished the first ride, new Bike, in '04. Took the tank in to a local screen-printer ( Automotive) and he replicated the decals and the colours in A-Grade vinyl and covered them with a clear laminate.They'll last for ever and are'nt bothered by the fumes breathing out of the low density plastic tank. Cost ? $45.00

Looking at them, you would'nt know the difference from a new one.

Likewise the radiator shroud decals which are original but laminated with clear as well.

Cosmetics do make a difference for sure ....

The Dinasours ain't dead yet ,
