Title: New member and has a ?
Post by: Jd88kaw on August 26, 2016, 12:49:52 AM
Hi y'all. In New to the forum but have been by looking for advice a lot so I figured why not become a member. Any way I live in Maryland, I'm 25 and have a 88 kx250 with a 89 motor, the 88 motor is gonna take a little while to fix up, the bike is In the process of being rebuilt. So for my question, I was doing some reading and a few people said that you can use the 88 cdi box with the 89 kx250 motor. Gives it a little kick in the butt/ revs a little quicker. If anybody has done this or can help me out with the 88/89 wiring I would appreciate it. Thank you

welcome to the site Jd!
be patient...during the middle of the day can be a tuff time for an answer/response, as most guys/gals are at work.
you could try using the sites search option...you might find some info.

Hey there! A fellow dirt biker lol. Thanks for the welcome. I thought about that when I sent it but i go to work at 4 and I'm off 2 so I'm sitting here starring at the bike. I've tired searching and wording differently but all I can find is the one thread and it's only a couple posts.

I've only heard whispers of it being done.
I have no direct experience.
But there are a few 250 guru's here....

Same here. I can't find any hard evidence of it being done and how the wiring works because its definitely different wiring and I questioned whether it works because the crank is different, the cdi is etc etc etc. Like longevity wise hopefully it ain't bad for the bike.
