Welcome to KF man, a two-stroke 500 huh? Those things are crazy powerful.

 

Welcome, crack it wide open and hold on!

 

welcome to KF

 

Wow!! Look at the ground clearance on that thing, I bet that thing would bump over most logs out in the woods. Welcome Anthony, looks like you got a good deal on that puppy. Just be careful, and wear all the right gear.

Here is a link to the stator

I would give them a call just to make sure you get the right one. Good luck

 

Another good site for a new stator

 

Welcome to KF! Nice deal on the kx500.

 

Welcome to the KF family, where moles and slabsuts alike come to party. Have fun and be safe on that thing.. it's got a lot of power. Gear up. It's better to sweat now than to bleed later.

 

Welcome to KF. Good to see another 500 rider. I've got a 91CR500

Ridding tip
1-point bike in safe direction
2-blast-off
3-steer w/rear
