Hey! be careful on that thing, you might break something on the bike. How you tame yourself on those straight trails, Id have that thing pinned lol. Sweet ride bro.
unfortunately not...ended up with worn crank pins (if thats the right term) where it sits on the main bearings. Its currently at crank works getting that repaired, balanced, and trued with a new rod. I recently got a 40mm lectron and all new engine bearings. I matched the case to the cylinder transfer ports and cleaned up lots of excess casting flash in the transfer ports. my buddy also repaired a crack in the clutch cover from the brake. all in all I'm like a kid waiting for santa clause.
500 madmad here It will be worth it in the end.Just got mine together month ago.have 88 93 forks new wiesco rad valve body work had everything but the pipe the garnly was shot wanted to hear it run so had pro circuit from 92 kx 250 broke piston in pro circut makes works pipe for 89-04 even called them said wouldn't fit. 88 89 same so bought one online fit perf MAN DID IT WAKE IT UP HOLY SHIT santa come early Pleasssseee!
Scott 500 no I bought 92 is 250 off CL for 300.00 was complete looked nice but was hammered had a platinum pipe it has same diameter as the 500 so took a rose bud had to move it up half inch it slid into the 500 head the first hanger lined up looked funky cause 500 right side tank sweeps up the goes right up there 250 pipe there was huge gap but hell it didn't leak and I got my piston broke in.I bought a works pipe for the 500 the 250 pipe the motor was running out of steam on top the pipe made it whole New bike. Sorry about not getting back to ya haven't checked this for weeks been busy with school let me know when ya get running latet
Ei hele tuo alku, näistä pitäis aina leikkoa noi alut pois ku tuohon kameraan kattoo, näyttää aina nii vitu vammaselta iha sama kuka siihe kameraan kattoo =D Pistä lisää videoita!
got u a like bro my girlfreinds dad has a 98kx500 thats mint he runs it tho but he can ride it too we do alot of climbing where were from and the 500 eats the hills up
Man what a Great bike.. they are becoming legents by now.. the KX 500 .. the 2 stroke Kawasaki beast !í have a KDX 200.. and i would give you my bike for yours.. without money ofcource. because my KDX is one modded bastard.. but not one.. it is "the" bastard.. and i want a 500 2 stroke ;)
I know the CR 500 will fit in most CR 125/250 Frames, will the KX 500 fit in a KX 250 frame? I intend on making a KX 500 road legal however I'd like it to be in a modern frame...
Blackiceman225 because on a 2 stroke motor you cannot Coast in gear or engine brake because you are starving the motor of oil. It will cease with just air running through it, two stroke motor gets lubricated by two-stroke oil which is mixed with the gas and comes in through the carb so when you shop a carb closed you basically running the motor dry by only running air through the motor
Firstly, you'll have to ask more experienced riders. From what i can teell both bikes have way more power than you actually need in most situations. Also, both bikes were in production for a long time with changes in weight and dimensions, altering the which bike is better debate. If you're just wanting to joyride a powerful bike I'd say you cant go wrong with either. Google old magazine reviews for your choice of years and see what they say about both bikes.
I love how the bubbled wrapped people will find anything that can to call out when it comes to protection. Dude got pretty much every single protection know to man, on.. Except gloves, because as we all know, gloves are important, hands dont heal good, they will probably fall off, if you dont wear gloves...
Dear World citizen , having unauthorized fun on a two stroke is highly illegal ! the anti fun police will be around shortly to take you to re-education camp.
It's nice to see someone who knows how to ride a 2 stroke. Most people don't know that engine braking + premix 2 stroke = bad

You installed a pro circuit works pipe from a 92 kx250 and it worked great on your 500?

The 500 is a TWO STROKE big bore bike that came way before the four stroke 450. It is not a bored out 450. Two completely different bikes.
how tall are u making that bike look like a 85 or somthing
where are you at anyway?
nice place to ride. mann nice dirt roads.
you can really get a bike going .on these road's.
Finland
got u a like bro my girlfreinds dad has a 98kx500 thats mint he runs it tho but he can ride it too we do alot of climbing where were from and the 500 eats the hills up
Hyvää settiä. Itellä tarkotus vaihtaa 450 4t tommoseen, mutta en oo enää varma.
awesome!
pretty quick man what size sprockets are on your bike?
Hieno video ! Täll sentää on pokkaa ajaa tälläsel eikä enää aja sellasel vitun 125 cc !
Man what a Great bike.. they are becoming legents by now.. the KX 500 .. the 2 stroke Kawasaki beast !í have a KDX 200.. and i would give you my bike for yours.. without money ofcource. because my KDX is one modded bastard.. but not one.. it is "the" bastard.. and i want a 500 2 stroke ;)

What year is that 500?
what year ?
ehm they do if you fall you dont get your skin of your hand like rubber ?
why do you pull the clutch after every singel wheelie and let it roll??
Blackiceman225 because on a 2 stroke motor you cannot Coast in gear or engine brake because you are starving the motor of oil.

Okay thanks man!
just got my kx not that long ago
got loos visor?
Omg that thing is fast! What is the top speed?
90-100 no gearing 120 with the perfect gearing
do you by any chance know what the top speed of that is?
8 years ago but I’ve heard they can get up to 120 on stock motor with the right gearing but I’ve also heard 90-100 with stock gearing
Worlds best bike kx500 all day!!! Betting worked on cars all day

KX 500 and KX 250 have the same frame
if you can raise the front end with so much ease why the hell dont you go through the box on the back whee[

Where's your gloves?
perseessä for finnish
Brian Jacobsen what’s a glove ?...this prolly explains why my hands are always cut up from riding 😂
Siisti peli :D
Because i don´t like engine braking with a 2 stroke..
5:06 fucking beatiful!
Al that protection. But no gloves....
Where is this?
Finland
