Been2Long,

I painted the number plates. I used Adhesion Promoter and then used Krylon Black special purpose (Camo) paint. I like the black and green. I did not like the lookof the white number plate.

My KDX

This is my KDX200 '94

I'm from Argentina, I pay for this bike U$S2000 (yeah, two thousand)...thanks to our government...

The price of the used bikes is so high because there are very few, and find one in good condition is is almost impossible...
We can not import used bikes, and a new one is to much expensive...
a KXF250 2010 its around U$S11000....

For now, I enjoy this bike (its my first 2-stroke)

Nice looking bike! Looks really clean. I just bought a '93 250 a couple of months ago that looks very similar. $2,000 is a lot, I paid $1,400 Canadian for mine which is even quite a bit higher than they seem to go for in the US. We have a smaller pool of bikes here too so the good ones tend to be expensive.

Man that 94 looks almost brand new! Nice bike, $2,000 or not!

I got my 89 for $400. Bottom and top end rebuild, some cosmetics, some bearings, tires, brakes, some general maintenance, and a front end swap later, I'm in for about $1500.

Right after I brought it home...

Right after I finished bolting on the yz250 front end....

More recent, and add a little more dirt....

Lots more work to do. Mostly it's replacing plastics and such from here on out though. At least until something breaks!

My '86 KDX200

Here's my 1986 KDX, yes, it's 24 years old, I bought it new, motor got a rod set and Nikasil recoat bore job a few years ago, Wiseco piston and dropped the bore clearance down to .0018". Also has KX 125 reeds and the squish closed up, makes so much power and the suspension works that well that I see no reason to replace it. The fuel cap split on my last ride so I made a new carbon fiber one for it as I couldn't find one. Parts are getting hard to get, I try to not drop it to badly because of that. Note the rear brake.

86 Kdx

Wow that 86 beats my painted up 86
My stupid son ran straight petrol, no oil, now need to redo motor again grrr

Thanks. I DO get it muddy, dirty, all the time, but to keep it alive so long you have to clean it everytime, or you end up doing way more maintainence. One place I used to ride, there was a river crossing that would submerge the cases, when the water gets to the top of the engine and it cools it off real quick it would suck water in the ignition cover through the wire boot. I added a vent tube and ran it up into the air filter box and siliconed up the wire pass through. Ignition has stayed perfect since. Can't imagine you could fine one of those anymore either.

Nice looking 250 bujas, I have the exact same one. Mine looks pretty much the same as yours, I'm waiting for a black seat cover to arrive to replace the teal blue stocker...should make it look a little more current.
