New to a 97 KX500

Just moved from Colorado and picked up a nice bone stock 97 KX500. I used to race back in the day but busted bones slowed me a bit.I'm 43. anyway, If the pics show, I went to Glamis and that bike is king that day. I blew away a CR450f up Olds hill too. It's a great bike but need a better pipe (not for power exactly) because vibration started cracking it.

RE: New to a 97 KX500

Welcome, so you're 43 huh and just got a KX500? You got more onions than I do. That's all I have to say about that. I'm 43 and the KLX 250S is all the bike I will ever need.[8D] Again welcome, and if nobody said it already, post some pics of the bike or your riding areas when you get a chance.
