Title: 89 kx 250
Post by: concave3 on July 13, 2011, 07:46:44 AM

whats up all... Ive got an 89 kx 250 and the front and rear plastics look horrible! I was wondering if their was a universal graphic material that is all black that I could put on my front and rear fender? I dont want to try paint, cause im sure it wouldn't work too well... any tips would be great!

also I dont do motoX I usually ride distance or fast long trails so I need more speed! and I would like to cruise fifth gear at a decent speed without having the motor strung out and im geared at 14/49 sprockets... would a 15 front fit without a case saver? or should I just keep the 14 up front and take a few teeth off the rear...

any suggestions or info would be great!

Since an 89 KX250 takes the same plastics as a KX500 up to 2004, there is no problem just replacing the plastics. You're unlikely to be able to 3M wrap the fender for less than the $20-30 a replacement fender costs.

Not sure about the 250, but my 500 took a 15T with no mods.
