KX500-KX250 manifold?

<< < (3/6) > >>

cmotodad:
For some reason unknown to me, the KX 250 manifold I purchased is longer than the one that came on the 500 motor I have.

DoldGuy:
The 92/93/94 "KX250" manifold is the same as the "KDX250" manifold & is shorter than the "KX500" manifold & the "250" manifold has more angle than the "500". The later KX250 manifold has the same angle, but they are designed to be used with reed stuffers & thus the hole on the reed cage area is quite smaller. Depending on what reed cage you plan on using would determine which to use.

Hope this helps,

DoldGuy

Correction (on my part), the KDX manifold is longer than the 03 KX250 manifold I used. It put the carb deeper into the airbox, as it should. I also used the V Force reed cage from the 03 250 and didnt like how it ran. I figured that the manifold from one or more of the early KX250s would be the same but never cross referenced the part #s.

cmotodad:
The 250 manifold I have has the rubber reed stuffers built on the manifold. Would like to find the best angle for shock clearance.

The Flyin Hawaiian:
What year KX manifold did you get?
