Not sure about the quality of this unit , but I had very similar "factory" unit on my sons BW KX80 and it worked great  also had a swingarm mounted version on my K2 it worked well also but the spring broke and I had to find a replacement spring at the hardware store. Just my thoughts.

gwcrim:
I bought one for my 02 KX250.  It's a decent part other than:

1- the spring is sort of weak
2- the leg itself is make of thin wall tubing

Right now, I have a bent leg on mine.  I asked the guy if he could make them out of heavier material but he said no.

Take a look at the ones that bolt on to the swingarm.  They are MUCH heavier and won't break.

martinfan30:
Where can i find them?

gwcrim:
I think I got mine from Utah Power Sports or something.  Rocky Mtn might have them too.

I have one for my KX500 and one on a KX85.  The 85 had issues constantly breaking the spring.  I put one on from a trampoline and it's been good ever since.  The one on the 500 has never had an issue.
