Kle 500 suspension upgrade
Hi everybody new here and new to my kle500,bought it to commute to work and to start my adventure touring. My KLE500 rear shock is very week and bouncy like riding a trampoline so I am looking at replacing , upgrading as I wish to do some off road adventure touring.
Has any body upgraded there suspension front and back if so what have you done.
I am looking at replacing rear shock with one off a Honda CRF 450 ,also looking at a set of WP forks off a CCM640 or similar, has any one done something similar if so what .
While I am here , I have noticed my KLE is very boggy and restricted , it is totally standard , so I have ordered off ebay a KTM SXF silencer to convert, is there any restriction in exhaust system other than the end can. I have also ordered a K&N air filter and will drill out back of air box , as regards the carbs is a stage 1 dyno jet kit best for this set up .
Sorry for the long list but want to get it sorted as I think it will make a great bike for what I want it to do, any other help will be great many thanks Gary
