2007 KAWASAKI KX250AF BUILD

(1/22) > >>

sandblaster:
A buddy of mine has a 03 KX250 engine complete, fully rebuilt and looking for something to stick it in to.
It just so happens that I have a 2007 KX450F frame.
So we stuck the engine in it to see what would happen.
And of course the frame yoke is too low to let the exhaust pipe out  :-o But then we knew that. :D
Next thing I know my buddy pulled a 01 cr250 frame from storage and drops the engine in...

PS... This engine is a 95 KX250 that was handy for fitment purposes.



Kawaonda or a Honasaki  :?

DoldGuy:
You have got me thinking.....

How does the motor mounts line up? Pivot bolt same diameter?

sandblaster:
Haven't really gotten into it yet but just from a brief look, putting the kx250 motor in the Honda frame is easy.
The lower mounts line up with the swing arm pin.
Not sure about the diameters as it was a quickie.
I won't be putting the KX in to CR but I'll give some more info on it just for grins.

DoldGuy:

Honda into a Kawi frame.....really have me thinking...

tkeen511:
Yeah but you don't want that 01 garbage. Still too early of a gen, that thing was stuff as s**t and broke like glass. P.s. On a side note, do you have a legit website? Or just the ebay store?
