Nathan Alexander was the mad scientist who brought the 2000 Kawasaki KX500 to life. He went one step further while resurrecting these beasts by making the KX500 a replica of Jeff Emig’s 1996 MXDN machine. Nathan decided to use 2002 KX250 two-stroke forks and clamps on the 2000 KX500. The wheels were standard with updated D.I.D. rims and beefier spokes. How many times have you seen a KX500 hauling the mail on a motocross track? Rarely, other than Sean Collier. The KX500 was lightning fast but hard to control at times. On the track, the KX500 suspension and engine felt racey. The forks were stiff and the engine was potent. It revved through its rpm range quickly, making the shift points close together. After some time on the bike, we learned how to ride it better by lugging the engine. This would be our dream bike if only we could find a way to keep the bolts from vibrating out.
