I can't see it either.  Just remember, if it's aluminum, it should be polished.

If you can't really see it, you have a computer problem!  :lol:

Alan, the picture did not show up a few days ago. Now it shows just fine. I dont know why that happened, but my computor is not having any problems.
  If that was my box  of goodies, I would be digging in and enjoying the project. I just love to put stuff like that together. I usually get an education and have fun at the same time. Plus you get to ride it when it is finished.

The funny thing is I hadn't planned on another KX5, but the price was so good I couldn't pass it up! So I really haven't looked in the box yet! That may sound a little weird but I am in the process of building my shop at the house and I don't have the time or space till I finish that first!

I keep thinking maybe I will trick out the motor and powder coat the frame and change the front forks and triple tree and go with 04 plastics and graphics! So I just opened up the box and snapped a couple of pic's  to have a record of when it arrived!

Alan :-D

d**n permissions :lol:

I had hoped the permissions from PNphpBB2 would port over to SMF 1.1 but they don't  :roll: You have to set them yourself.  :| Oh well, seems to be worked out now.
