6/21/2016 8:53pm although I did get stuck at the swingarm nut, video I watched said its 22mm, wont fit, looked it up on parts and says its 16mm (92015-1316) http://www.kawasakipartshouse.com/oemparts/a/kaw/500b23f2f8700223e478ca… (way too small) a 24mm socket wont fit in the hole...... 23mm? maybe lol, I dont have a 23mm socket so thats why i havent tried yet

6/13/2016 8:26pm thanks for the info, just placed an order for the Boyesen rad valve for this (RAD-11D) as my intake manifold was shot and been looking all over just to see what parts are available, figured their would be a strong aftermarket for these older bikes but it seem like hit and miss
