If you are planning on buying a rim and hub assembly , i would stick to finding a 86-87 kx 500 rim , bike bandit is showing that those 2 years shared the same hub , axle , rim , but the newer 500s take a diff part number . If you plan on buying just a rim the "holes" that demographic are talking about are the spoke holes have to be the same amount on the hub and the rim minus the valvestem hole and the rim lock hole . either wat ebay is the place to be looking .
