Hi Sandblaster. I might have to take you up on that needle offer. Kawi has discontinued the needle and is no longer available. I also asked my bike shop if they can get and they said no.
Do you have the needle for me?
Ed

I'll take a look tomorrow and see what I can find.
N3YK?

That's the one, thanks Sandblaster. :-)

Hey guys, here's an update...
After breaking a screw driver and small hammer, I decided to get the (semi) right, but cheap tools and get a good hammer and punch. I got the bearings out! The front was surprisingly difficult. I still have to properly clean the front hub and rim like I did the rear.
Drained tha apple sauce coolant.
Drained the tar-like transmission fluid.
Removed the header for reviving.
I upped my game with a magnetic bowl.
Go the the triple clamps off, but the bar mount are not moving at all. Seems like they are stuck in there good.
The steering stem bearings look salvageable. They turned very smooth when they where on the bike. Just needs a clean and good regrease.
Whats left.
Can anyone tell me what Kawasaki model this rear fender comes off? It says made in Italy at bottom, so maybe an Acerbis. But I think it is the wrong rear fender for the bike as it didn't look right when it was on the bike. It seemed too far back.

looks like it's possibly a Pro Circuit pipe?...that's a good thing if so.
all the black spooge all over the front frame rails and down the front of the motor bring back horrifying memories of my '00 the day I brought it home.
the bar mounts will come out, you may need to give them a helping hand with a rubber mallet, but they'll come out. When you re-install them, use a touch of grease so the rubber cones and mounts won't "weld" themselves in again.
I believe that's an '05 KX250 rear fender.
