The Dep has more of a mid and top pull with over rev, defiantly not as tractor like as the Gnarly. I noticed with this pipe its nearly impossible to ride wide open (any gear) on pavement, the front wheel pops up like nothing, Gnarly seemed a bit more tamed that way. And for the fork conversion holy cow, what a difference, just felt all around more stable at the front

That DEP is for a CR500 right?

Correct. Didnt think they made kx5 pipes?

how does the dep compare to the stock pipe. I feel like the gnarly (im assuming youre referring to woods pipe) has nothing up top at all. Ive heard that the dep has a very broad power band and pulls hard all over. Do you feel this is accurate?

Sorry extremely delayed reply *was hibernating over winter*. Yeah i can agree with it having a smooth power output all over the rpm range

starting digging into the engine for the first time and so fare ive concluded i need a replate job and crank rebuild for sure. debating having it ported as well but cant make up my mind

. Any suggestions and what should be looked over when rebuilding the k5 eninge, open to mod suggestions too

Hmm two kinds of main seals to choose from. Both from MooseRacing

ones to left came with main bearings as a kit, and to the right was a complete engine seal kit. Should i just toss a coin?
