[QUOTE="DEANSFASTWAY, post: 581257, member: 31309"] Yeah I had like 5 or 6 of them and the earliest one was a 86 and it was evil fast .Clocked 104mph by a Nj state trooper on Rt 130 at night when someone stole it and the coppers recovered it, Thanks coppers They are really good bikes and a real lot of fun in the dunes with a paddle tire on the rear . I had one with Cibie lights and if you rode it at night you could never see where you were going because you were wheelieing(wheelying?) all the time . on that older one KX the fellow could possibly adapt a later model ign on it .on like 91s Rad valves and FMF pipes really spread out and smoothened the power funny:on 91 KX 250 rad valve seemed to do nothing.Earlier thicker head gaskets smoothened power also, you could actually ride the bike faster. PC pipes seemed to hit real hard. On a KX 500 running fast you could plug an air filter in an afternoon of riding. A 88 /89 KX 250 gas tank from a salvage yard really slims down the seat tank junction. we filled the bars with caulk also. We liked to run them a bit rich with good fuel. Stripped out 3rd gear dogs and popped the circlip once or twice on them though. My friend broke a couple of kick starters at the pivot . HO HO HO ! GREEN GIANT! I really liked that bike . [/QUOTE]
