250 ignition on a 500???

(1/3) > >>

cookingphat:
Is any one running a 250 ignition on there 500??
I am mid conversion KX500AF and need to replace the stator and flywheel on a 86 motor. Am I right in thinking a 250 flywheel will give a better power delivery and a free'er revving bottom end?
Thanks in advance

dave916:
no, the 86/89 already have a small flywheel

cookingphat:
Ok thanks.. How about the stator and cdi..?? I read that the cdi is 86 only, different part number to the 87 even! and the stator fits 86 only, 87-89 different again.. is this right?? My 86 stator is dysfunctional so I need to replace that or get it rewound, living in the UK there are very few 500's on the island so finding a like for like part I say would be near on impossible. There are plenty of 250's though so really just need to know what years of the 250's I could use ignition wise???

this is a link for a brand new stator in the u.k. i am u.k based too

beware buying 89 500 ignition stuff as some had the old and some had the new ignition. i think both will work on your 86 but you cant mix the components
