1988-2002 KX500 Kickstand
This Ricochet kickstand is built tough to handle the punishment your KX500 dishes out. The shaft and clamp work together to grip your swing arm solid, so your bike stays put when you park it. You get a kickstand that won't quit on you.
What You're Getting
- 4130 chromoly steel shaft — same stuff they use in airplanes
- Heat-treated T1 carbon steel bracket and clamp assembly
- High-tension steel spring that shrugs off vibrations and regular use
- Weighs 1.5 lbs total
The bracket clamps tight around the swing arm for peace of mind. The spring is built to last through countless riding sessions without getting tired or loose. Installation takes about five minutes — just bolt it on and you're done.
Why Chromoly Works Here
Chromoly is what aerospace companies use because it handles real stress. It won't bend or snap under the weight of your bike and the constant pounding from rough ground. Unlike aluminum, which can flex or crack, chromoly gives you that sweet spot between strength and flexibility — it soaks up hits and keeps on working. That's why a chromoly kickstand outlasts the cheap aluminum alternatives you'll find elsewhere.
Finish Options
You can add a custom powder coat that matches OEM colors if you want. If you do, add an extra week or two to your ship time. The color matches your bike so the kickstand disappears into it.
Made in the USA
This kickstand is designed, tested, sourced, and built right here in the USA.
