Kawasaki KX500... any good on the streets? (RAW 2 Stroke Sound)

I went for a street rip on the old KX500. Not the best for the street, but a h*ck of a ton of fun. I call it smiles per gallon. Enjoy!

    Everyone has there own opinion but I just wouldn't recommend riding down large hills engine braking a 2 stroke. Besides that, down shifting to a stops etc is fine and has never blown up a motor( I've over revved the shit out my 125 plenty times downshifting landing on jumps etc never blew up) Main thing with a 2 stroke is to let it warm properly before ripping it

    You're right. Excessive coasting on a premix bike doesn't do it any favours simply because it's being used in a way it wasn't designed. But there's not much you can do aside from freewheeling everywhere. You just need to keep an eye on the top end.

First time out I was asking myself, "what the frick did you do?" I had no business riding this firebreather! Sold it two years later after knocking myself out on a tabletop. The power was hard to manage...but what a rush!

Being only 60kg at the time I had to balance the bike and stand on the kickstarter at it's highest point using full body weight, and then hope I didn't get a recoil onto my leg. 3,5 years on this bike I made some nice memories...

    @@verttisyrjala2897 yes ther is a power difference i agree but as i told most tuners tend to lean out om fuel in quest of more power tho i most of the time tuning customers bikes rather go for more safe on the rich side if needed and let the engine be riliable then go fore the last horsepower and risk of ruining an engine.

    As long as you mix the oil rich enough to maintain oil presence of a bit during engine braking, you're all good. Worse case scenario you just have slightly shortened ring lifespan. There isn't much side loading on the piston during engine braking.

    It would be awesome to have a 2-stroke 500 cc bike on the road but i couldn't justify running a bike that does less mpg than my "2.0 litre petrol turbo car". I'd love to see someone stick a lighter to the exhaust of a 500cc 2-stroke to see what kind of flames you can get off the exhaust gases. I done it on a 125cc 2-stroke once, the exhaust gases were still flammable! I've got a 2001 Yamaha XT600E, which i took apart to paint the frame, can't wait to get it back on the road soon, i love big old thumpers.
