It's pretty easy to start a new thread. First click on the section you want it to be in, such as In General, or KX500 Original. Once you are in the section, look up at the top, below the green bar but above the threads, and there will be three blue buttons. The last one on the right is New Topic. Click on that and it will open the dialog box for you to start typing. Please try to search before you start a new thread, as we try to avoid having multiple threads on the same subject. If I can suggest a thread, how about one dedicated to your bike rebuild? I think it's going to be fun to read about you bringing the dude back to life.
