Hey Guy's,

My kick starter just broke this afternoon. It broke right at the pivot point. I tought I had the new updated unit. I just bought it about 7 months ago. How can I tell if the unit I have is the new updated kicker :?: Does anbody have any pictures of their new kicker :?: Does the new kicker look like to one found on new kx250 or 500 :?:  Does the part number supersceed to the new updated kicker or do I need to ask for it :?: I guess there's no warranty on an item like this.

machine:
All I know is that the kicker on my 04' KX500
looks just like the one on an old 89' KX250 that I had.

O, And I broke too......

hughes:
My kick starter looks very different than yours. I zoomed in on the side shot of your bike. I wonder when they changed design. I looked at bike bandit and the one for a 04 kx500 is 95.00. Look at my photo gallery I have a close up side shot of my engine where you can see my kick starter. After loking at all the bikes in the gallery I do have a different kicker and I guess it is the old style.

gowen:
The one in your picture is the old version, or that is jsut what they make for the '87, I'm unsure, but it is not the new style and thickness.

hughes:
Is there new style any better about breaking :?: Do you know anybody that has broke the new style :?:
