Jfab, I'm putting together a 2006 kx450f and 1992 kx500 engine, if you have pics of previous jobs they would be appreciated. That way if I run into unforeseen obstacles I can refer to your blueprint. Thanks in advance.

Yeah that's great illustration and instruction. All is appreciated. I was just looking for additional pictures. Kawasaki shows the 2006, 2007, and 2008 to be different PN's but they all look the same to me. I have a 2006 and 2008 cannot see any differences. Oh well, here goes the cutting.

Pull pullrod as far out it goes and then put in geared Kips-drums in place and then third gear in....check it closes
and open right.

No, I did not. Can you try it again? I have all of my frame fittings cut off and my welder and I are going to do the frame mods not this sunday but the next sunday 4/26 (he has a busy schedule). Pics would be appreciated. Thanks again. SpeedDemon@charter.net

Yes, I ordered my Gnarly pipe and silencer from AJ but haven't installed yet. I have to finish my frame mods first. Here is the link to the post.
