Maintenance & Technical > KX500 Original

Complete KX500 top-end rebuild instruction here!

(1/8) > >>

OK.

I have been working with this together with Doordie and the current release is 1.0 (which is work in progress). The instruction will give you some good ideas what to do when you are rebuilding your KX500 top-end. Some of the tips are generic and will work for other two-strokers as well.

Since the format of the information is better displayed in HTML (web page) I have decided to create a web page, see below. Comments are welcome. Bare in mind that this is this first version and it will be updated once I have my cylinder back from the workshop that is re-plating it next week (so I hope anyway).

The goal here is not to create a fancy web page. Personally, function always goes before design...

Should you think anything is wrong or you disagree, please comment in this forum so both Doordie and I can answer these. I can subsequently update the web page with all useful information.

I think this information (once agreed being correct) can be added into the forum when Paul is back.

Thanks John &Doordie!  This will be a major help.

That was really considerate of you guys to do that.  Thanks.  :D

John:
No feedback on this? I was expecting at least some comments...

This is very good stuff :D  Thanks for putting the time and effort into it.

I have posted a link to it on one of the Visordown threads as there are a few on there with KX500s

About the only thing that I spotted that seemed strange was that instead of saying Removal (for the cylinder that is) you say "Dismounting".

Not really a problem at all  then..

I liked the fact that you came up with a good fix for worn powervalve pins cos mine are worn just like the ones in the picture :D

I have stored the webpage into my favorites.

Good work, very helpfull indeed.

Regards Scott
