Posted a few new pictures of my KX500 in the gallery under "Dan's resurrected KX500".  Finally got a new IMS tank.  My old one leaked real bad around the cap.  I would have really liked to get a black IMS but for desert racing, I just don't feel comfortable not being able to see how much gas I have.  (I'm still looking for a stock size black tank for GP racing)

Also have a photo of my 1999 KX500 used in May 2001.  I added the ugly handguards and plate backgrounds.  I bought the bike not knowing the upper shock mount was broke and a few other small problems.  :x Took me a while but got everything almost new again.  

I could have bought a new bike with all the money I've dumped into this one.  :roll:

My old IMS somehow got burred up around top lip and would not get a good seal around the cap.  I'd have liked to try a clark if they made one I liked.  The big one sticks up way too high and I don't really care for the one that carries the gas in the shrouds although if I sat on one, I might consider trying one of those tanks.
