Help!!! Upper Pipe Mount Broke Again.

<< < (7/11) > >>

GDubb:
I deffinetely like the looks of that. Plus you probly get a whole lot more options as far as shroud graphics since they use the KX250 shrouds.  What do you guys think of that pipe as compared to a PC or FMF system?

hughes:
Machine and gowen, I posted a picture of my mount repair using the square stock and cutting it to fit the contour of the frame. Hope you see what I did in the pictures. I have only 15 hours on the repair with acouple of falls on both sides. Look at work in progress under a.hughes 87kx500.

Hughes;
The pic is a bit hard to make out for me?
Did you use 1/4 square bar?

BigKX:
Use a flat piece of steel stock long engough to bridge the gap between the pipe mount and the rad. mount.
You can weld it or just drill holes at either end.  My KX has gone 5 years like this with no probs.

machine:
BigKX;

Do you mean join the 2 mounts?
The upper frame mount, the radiator frame mount, and the pipe all together?
I thought about it, but I was worried that the mount for the radiator would brake like the upper frame mount has?
