[QUOTE="internetscooter, post: 1436317, member: 74738"] All, I have a pretty dumb question - is the KDX220R just a KDX220? I have a mutant Vespa built for salt lake racing with a KDX200 cylinder fused on to a Vespa gearbox. The reason I went for the KDX was that I could go up in CC gradually over time (I am running in the 250cc class). Here is a video of it being dyno'd early 2013 producing ~32Hp and still having healthy power at 100mph+ [video=youtube;W8zwVshtF04]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8zwVshtF04[/video] I raced at Lake Gairdner, Australia a few weeks ago and only got a tad under 90mph. The subsequent dyno result showed I'd lost 10Hp somewhere, going from 32Hp to 22Hp... so a rebuild is in order. While I am doing the rebuild I am thinking about putting in a 220 sleeve and a 70mm piston. I can see sleeves on Amazon "97-05 KAWASAKI KDX220: LA Sleeve Cylinder Sleeve Standard Bore" but Amazon lists it under a 220R. Are they just the same? PS - You guys might be interested in some of the info I have gathered over the years e.g. I have computer scanned port maps of a KDX head. Just search for KDX on all pages (hopefully this link will work) [URL]http://www.vespalabs.org/Special:Search?search=kdx&ns=all&path=&go=Find[/URL] Cheers, Paul [IMG]http://www.vespalabs.org/@api/deki/files/1370/=PTDC0040.JPG?size=webview[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.vespalabs.org/@api/deki/files/1368/=IMG_0197_%252528Medium%252529.JPG[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
