DOCWOB - KX 500 Tyler Bowers build! - Aftercare form VMXdN!
Показать описание
Finally, we are back in the workshop post VMXdN Foxhill 2023 and I am not sure what takes longer, preparing to leave for the event or the clear-up afterwards? I know we have all slept for what has felt like a month!
We take you through what we do to the bikes post the event, and before we put them up for general sale, we are looking at the KX500 Tyler Bowers rode at the event. Bowers is a big lad, and she didn’t come out unscathed. Ideally, Bowers needed a 6.3 rear spring, but we only had a 5.7, and I don’t think they even sell a 6.3 spring in the UK? He bent a set of Ti foot peg pins, which we swapped for steel, and he bent them, too. He destroyed a rear brake carrier but all these things are fixable. I haven’t worked with a pro racer who is not hard on a bike to some degree, but all these things are replaceable and have already been sorted.
First up, we strip her down and give her a wash. We tend not to wash them at the race as these old machines aren’t particularly waterproof, and it can lead to a whole host of problems; keeping them dry makes it easier to spot things leaking and rubbing. We also remove the tank; check out the video to get our tip on what to look for.
We take a trip down memory lane with Bowers. He recalls his love affair with the KX500, building his replica machine – The Unit and winning the Redbull Straight Rhythm on it.
On the R&D side, we are looking at wheel spacers and making a KXF wheel fit a two-stroke, which opens the possibilities and makes Kawasaki two-stroke builds a heap easier.
We have so much coming up, including two new projects and VMXdN Foxhill 2024 news, so make sure you like and Subscribe to the channel to ensure you don’t miss an episode.
