Nice, buts what's the go with the rear suspension?
Would like some close up shots to see what's been modified  and to what extent.

Looks to have an 85 or 86 strut in it.

I'd love to know what footpegs he has used... does anyone know??
 I'd ask him only there's almost nothing more annoying than dumb questions like that...   :-\

JohnnyO, that would be great !  Thankyou if you get the chance.

I am looking for a nice wide peg like those that bolt straight up.


These KX500's are popping up everywhere ! How many did we have back in the day?

I've got late model KX450F pegs on my '84 Kx500, a little bit of grinding and they go straight on.
