Scott; as you know, the XL500 has the same single cylinder engine (with a kick starter) that my FT500's do. The engine is bulletproof (once you get it running).
5axis; that ride was what the Kbikes were designed for. I tried Dunlops and Avons on mine before going back to the Metzlers. All the bad traits went away when I did. I have my own changer / balancer, so experimenting with tires is easy for me. Love the pics!
Am at the Kentucky Derby tonight; one of my airplanes is flying the owner of the winning horse. His flight attendant bet $100. on his horse "because the owner had good karma...".
My karma was not so lucky. At 55 to 1, she karma-d home with $5500.
