Maintenance & Technical > KX500 Aluminum Frame Conversion (AFC)
2017 KX250F - 2004 KX250

I bought some stuff last year while I was waiting for the frame to be done. Now it's like Christmas as I open the parts closet and remember what I have. :-D
I found these Fasst anti-vibration pegs that were on sale. It's so nice to have a modern frame. People actually make stuff for them. I kept the pegs that came on the bike, and will be trying to modify them for Goliath. Hopefully I can make them work so I can get some more Fasst pegs for Goliath.

The Yamaha pegs I found were the easiest to mod to fit the KX500...

Would that transfer over to the 250 as well?

Doh.... Don't know :oops:

Today I got my motor completely squared in the frame and made my motor spacers. It was really close, I just needed a few millimeters to get it right. I used 1 1/2" aluminum rod and drilled a 43/64" hole in the center, and it worked really well. It took a lot of fine tuning with the belt sander to get the size correct, but in the end it's a really nice fit (see picture one).
I also added an Acerbis chain slider and chain guard in lime green, and Tusk wheel adjuster blocks for a little bling (see picture two).
