I like the graphics with the customer touches.  Where did you get them?

I had Dcor Visuals do the graphics, they're the 2016 Monster Energy Graphics Kit (same kit Eli Tomac is currently running). The only thing I had them change obviously was the KX450F to KX500AF writing on the airbox. Other than that, it's the same kit.

that's one of the cooler color combo's I've seen yet....nice job.



Thank you!

Here's a short video I took a couple of days ago just playing around. I'll have better footage soon.

Thanks  :mrgreen: Yep, it's a 110. Never was a fan of a 120 on my 450, so I thought I would just stick with a 110 on the 500.

Perhaps I have a dirt bike addiction?

Thanks! It was also featured as a 2 stroke spotlight quite some time ago as well. I also saw sandblaster's e-start ktm/kx500 featured :) Not quite done with it yet, I'll be turning it street legal soon (to hop from trail to trail). Only change I've made since the last photos is that I went to a 38mm PWK from a 2000 CR250 and rejetted it. Definitely going to be putting on an electric starter, lights, etc - some big things in store. Right now, my main focus is a 2003 CR250/500 project. It is taking up my time and $. I'm just getting ready to replace the bearings and start rebuilding the engine - already have a boat load of parts sitting around here. I've already got a plate for the bike, as well as all of the lighting setup (headlight, tail lights, etc). I wasn't sure if I wanted to post the build here or not, with it being a kawi lovers forum ;).

That's what the "My Other Ride" section is for. I love a good build thread.
