As promised here are the pics. KX 500 08 special is the mother of all dirt bikes. I want one but AUS $20,000.00, is a tad too steep for my pockets.![Frown](https://www.kawasakiforums.com/forum/images/smilies/frown.gif)
Draw you own conlusion sabout the PC pipe, some haters already have.[:@] All I'll add is that talking to the mechanic today, he said it was a 15 minute fitting with no more parts required. Oh and the header is the stock 2009 header. I was also informed this is exactly the same as my 07 header. No worries eh.[sm=icon_cheers.gif]

oz- the airbox on the aussie '09 is totally different than the US version. I friggin love that pipe and it looks like the new ones come with the cone tail which is what I want. I've got a line on a 300 header for free and I am going to be ordering one of these PC's. I'll go snap some pics of my '09's airbox right close where you did that '09 and people can compare them. It's hard to tell if the headers are different lengths. After I post my pics, people can see and then make some conclusions. thx for those awesome pics man.
edit: looks like to me the US spec header is still just a smidge shorter, but it's hard to tell officially. I can't get aussie parts fiche anywhere to look at part #'s. I'd love to use my new header with this Pro-Circuit instead of the used one I've found.
After looking at the pics, it's easy to tell why this Pro-Circuit fit- the aussie spec '09 KLX uses the 300R header which is about an inch longer as KLXer pointed outcould bea possibility. I've got to give you props lx'er, you figured that one out and simplified when us others couldn't think of that.![Wink](https://www.kawasakiforums.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif)
One thing that came out of this is that this new PC has the new awesome imo cone tail. And it has red in the logo, I'm all over it. Ebay has them for around $275. Not bad'tall.

I'm jealous of you guys' KLX's breathing abilities.[&o]I'm surprised no one has tried to install a 300R airbox to their 250S to bring in more air.
I didn't even realize Kawi still produced the 500 monster. I wonder what 60 rwhp feels like when that powerband kicks in?[:-]
And people think 450's and 510's are powerful. Nah, they'd feel likethe KLX250 when getting off that KX500 I'm bettin'. That dealership looks friggin awesome!!

The KX500 is made to order in the USA by these guys, http://www.servicehonda.com/kx500af.html. They also do CR500's, but who wants a red bike.[sm=boosign.gif]
If we get the 300 header here down under, it could explain the fitting issue I had with my 2 Brothers pipe. Also the statement the Kwaka mechanic made about the 07 and the 09 KLX's having the same header. IMHO I think it will fit a US 09 without too much work.

nah, it's too short. this is an 'understood' thing in the USA regarding the 300R and 250S header lengths. You're right, that does explain why your two-bros. didn't fit well. You'd think it would have been too long since the 300 header is longer and the 2-bros. is designed for the 250S' shorter header. I don't know. All this talk is getting boring. I'm out for now.

BTW- my father has a Homelite 150 automatic chainsaw he bought in '77. He's used it for 30 years until I just bought him a new Stihl MD-250 for Christmas. The homelite NEVER saw any internal repairs. It runs as strong as day one. You gonna dispute that too?
As far as the genius comment, well that's pushing it.
