It's been a long long build. Many hours of engine R&D, polishing, fabrication, starting over, frustration, happiness, and now excitement. We are very close to the build off. I wish I could post pics but all I can show is this small teaser..

Jason Tanner and I were doing some testing and tuning of the KtX500e.. Jason rolls out of the driveway in 2nd gear. Then he blips the throttle just a touch... Then he flogs it with no clutch work out of the hole. He goes through the gears, turns around and comes back only to tell me that the clutch was slipping.

I had just rode it and I weigh about 70 more lb than Jason so I knew the clutch was fine. We walked out to the street and looked,,, Jason left a black strip for 165 yds down the street... Yes, the bike will be getting new knobs for the buildoff. And, we detuned the engine just a smidge

Not only was the bike looking good but the real surprise was the power..
Pulls amazing linear power from 2200rpm to 9200 rpm with a ton of torque.
Or was it a surprise???
