Hey guys, I have a 1993 Kawasaki KX500 that i'm considering selling. I've owned it for about a year now, and my riding time has been progressively getting cut down....now i ride once every 2 months. This is a good bike and i really hate to see it just sitting in my garage collecting dust. When i bought it, i tore it down and rebuilt it bottom-up with one of my friends who builds bikes. The previous owner painted the whole frame black, but didn't sand down the green paint, so it's showing up in some spots where my boots used to rub. Another thing wrong with the bike is the fender has been broken ever since I bought the bike, so i just zip tied it figuring that i'll end up breaking it anyway. I can order a new fender for whoever wants to buy the bike if needed, its only ~30 bucks. One more thing is the top right radiator bracket is broken, but has been held on with one ziptie ever since the rebuild last summer, and hasnt moved an inch. I think it's pretty sturdy. I think the front forks might be leaking a VERY tiny bit, i just see a tiny bit of fork fluid on the valve. Probably normal with used bikes, but i'm **** about this thing. Silencer freshly repacked.

The front tire is probably half way worn, and the back only has 1 two hour ride on it. Besides that, the bike has an FMF Gnarly pipe that i bought used. It has a couple dents on it, but nothing horrible. I'll also throw in the stock pipe if needed, although it acts as a GREAT braker bar

I would like to get $1500 for it as it's in pretty dang good shape, but i will entertain reasonable offers. I'm in Cincinnati, Ohio. West Chester to be exact.


Anybody is welcome to come over to check out the bike and chat a bit about it! I'm not sure about a test ride however, neighbors have called the cops on me already for riding it on the street when tuning My street is infested with little kids that are ALWAYS outside.

If you know anything about dirt bikes, then you will know that this is pretty much the Veyron of dirt bikes, its insanely fast.

Pics of before i got the pipe, bark busters, and a couple other things. Chain is a DID x-ring, it won't break or stretch.

nice bike. my uncle had one just like it. only thing id like to say is that the DID chain is nice and all but it will most definitely stretch, just not as much as a cheap one will.

 

Hoe much where these when they where new?
