[QUOTE="jeffcooper, post: 1430506, member: 82075"] Tony - I think the 96 frame is identical to the 95, so it should work, it's very easy to get the engine out and slip it in, so I recommend you give that a go just to check first! The swap wasn't hard though - you have to cut some off the swing-arm to fit each side of the engine, and the sleeve bushes to match, and I had to drill out the engine castings, about 1 or 2 mm to get the thicker swing-arm pivot bolt through - the carb/airbox connection is a little bit shorter as well, although it fit, you just have to try hard ! Other than that, everything fit like it was made for it, although of course you lose the speedo cable drive, so go digital, or forget it! oh, I did have to open out one of the bolt holes on the engine top mounts. Cable routing underneath the tank is a tad tricky as well - and you would need the KX radiators, even though you can mate them up with the KDX engine with a bit of adjustment. Bottom line is that I'm no engineer - it was all done with basic tools in the shed at the bottom of the garden, so it couldn't have been hard. One thing I do miss though on the much, much, much lighter, better handling bike is the side stand !!!!! [/QUOTE]
