The four stroke engine: That's one stroke for producing power and three for wearing the engine out.

If you could combine a trip to the beach with some dirt bike riding, then it would truly be paradise.  In fact, I think there is some decent land to ride on the big island of Hawaii.  Now if I could just convince American Airlines that my bikes are luggage, I would be set.   :-D

These guys rent real dirt bikes, along with dual sport, I rented their KLR650 to take the wife around the Road to Hana.

So I got home to some painted parts and Larry got my compression release done!!!





I could'n't proceed with the bike build without doing a couple of things I had not done.
1- Compression release
2- powdercoat  CPI pipe, swingarm , footpegs, kickstand, chaincover (was KTM orange so wrong for the GreenPumpkin)
3- New swingarm bearings



So I'm reading about the APT carb while I'm gone here on KXRIDERS,,,, piece of crap????? Guess I'll find out soon.

It seems like this is taking longer than I expected, but the shop is sure a lot dirtier than the last time I posted, so I must be doing something.
Anyway the graphics are from DeCal Works a guy by the name of Sean helped line me out with these. I couldn't be happier at how easy it was to have Kawasaki green on the Pumpkin, not to mention the company logos,,, KTM,,,Kawasaki,,,Christini,,, they make it easy to do a wide variety of what you want your way.

Sean at Decal Works helped me with my 2004 250 and 2005 125 (my son's bike). Great dude and a really nice product.

The bike is really looking sweet!  How close are you to riding it?

I'm not sure when I'll finish,,,, I'm going ATV riding tomorrow. Working on it is coming in short bursts right now. I want a good long trail ride in the summer.

I'm having issues with my pipe fitment on my 2003 conversion. Did you order the pipe directly from CPI or do they not offer it any more?
