   NO USED 88 KX500 PARTS. REBUILT MY FORKS & R-SHOCK MY SELF. I PUT A FLY WHEEL WEIGHT & NEW PLASTIC & SEAT COVER. THIS WINTER I AM GOING TO POWDER COAT THE FRAME. I ALSO HAVE 2 SPAIR MOTOR A 87 & A 93 BOATH REPUILT. ALSO HAVE SPAIR SUB FRAMES FORKS & MIS' PARTS. SO I THINK I'M SET.

That's a nice looking bike Bob, I've got an 87 that I plan on rebuilding. My bike runs fine after I rebuilt the topend, but It needs a cosmetic make over. You said you rebuilt your shocks yourself, was it hard to do?
