Yeah, were did you hear that? I've broken two topends in on this bike and no telling how many on my other bikes. Super M is like the KX500, in a class by itself ;)

mikesmith,
Thanks for the info.  The gaskets are steel so I put the bumps up.  Hopefully that's right.

Let me try and find the link.  I think it was one of the engine tuner sites.  It basically was stating that syn or semi shouldn't be use for breakin.  SuperM is a semi correct?

I'm starting to put the ignition system back together and need to know if there's any adjustment that needs to be done to the stator plate and or coils.  I understand that the plate has to have the "lines" lined up for timing purposes but is there any adjustment with the coils?  Also, is there a wiring schematic online somewhere that states what wire goes where?

I havent had the coils off,but Im sure they bolt on with no adjustment.The plate goes has the center mark out of the 3 to the mark on the case.Arent your wires color coded?Or try the Buy Kawasaki web site,not sure if the wire schematic is on there or not.

Yes they are color coded but a couple wires don't match what my service manual shows.

I agree with mikesmith, there is really like 4 wires for the KX and I can't imagine getting them confused. A wire going from the stator to the CDI, then from the CDI to the coil. I don't think it should be a problem and they usally are color coded.
