just finished 08 kxf500 conversion ready to sell
« on: November 06, 2015, 10:30:27 AM »
 Sold sold sold




 this is a 2008 kx450 chassis and i'm sure the motor is on the newer side not sure what year it is. but the motor is fresh and runs awesome,one of the strongest kx500 motors ive ever ridden and ive owned and ridden lots of them. raced them for many years.
just finished the fabrication , considering selling the rolling chassis ready for your motor or complete ready to ride, after I get it cleaned up and assembled.
all t work was done by me. if you want any other pics it would be easiest to send via text as I'm not at my home computer very often.
 I have been welding and fabricating quads,bikes,race cars and everything else for over 20 years. this is a very well thought out conversion and it uses the factory 450 radiators, so no worries about stuff lining up and replacing anything oddball.
 the rest off the bike is in excellent condition.
 feel free to post questions or text me
 thanks john 608-346-4015
none of these pics are in order. the bike is pretty much done

I bought it from Service Honda in 2009. I'm just now figuring out how to ride it! Lol!

I know this conversion isnt as flashy as most on here. I wanted it to look like it came from KHI this way.
 its a very simple well laid out bike that goes together very smoothly and will work like it should.
 the frame is strong, and you can easily pull the motor out of this bike in one piece. in fact I can take it in and out with out pulling the shifter or the kicker.
     you can change the spark plug without taking any parts off. the only inconvenience is the oil fill plug. I did cut the top off and planned to replace it with one of those neat billet ones which will work just fine.
 a lot of time was spent on the little details that makes life easier when you have to actually turn a wrench on it.
