The Transfer Of Bling
The upgrades for the new KDX will be this:
1) Move all the cool bits and pieces from the'97 to the '05. Started that today.
2) Install Wiseco Piston (ordered)
3) Rev Loc Dyna Ring
4) Braided brake lines
5) Gold Valves both ends
6) Keep eyes peeled for forks for conversion
7) I'm still undecided about the RB Head mod and Striker Carb
Oh yeah, I've owned tons of Japanese dirt bikes over the years and I've NEVER seen this much grease on the head bearings! I read the Thailand KDX's have more lube than the Japanese KDX's... it's true!

The cclor of that grease looks like someone re-lubed the bearings with BelRay water proof grease to me. Just sayin' someone did their maintenance!
