Brents 1992 KX500 engine needs a bit of work before it's ready for his snow bike.
Starting with the cylinder.. It has been ported by Eric Gore.
This cylinder porting would be great for a trail bike but not so good for a Snow bike..

When you see stuff like this on a bike it makes you a bit nervous on what you will find..

At first glance the transmission didn't look to bad... excluding the milky oil of course..
