Maintenance & Technical > KX500 Aluminum Frame Conversion (AFC)
KXF 250 2007 for KX500AF
Dutch-K5 Fan:
Today I've take the K5 engine out of its frame
and took a quick look how it would fit.
It looks like "only" the Y section and some engine mounts are in the wrong place.
First I'll take the cilinder of and will drill the swingarm bolt hole. Thinking to take clutch
cover and clutch basket/hub off for smooth survice to rest on.
Will post some pics next time( if the battary's aren't empty) :-)

not sure you can get the motor in the 250f chassis without cutting it, even with the cylinder off I think it is to long.
Dutch-K5 Fan:
Because of some family matters I haven't done much with the bike.
And It's standing at work, have no place at home. normaly its in my fan.
But yesterday in my lunchbreak I have drilled the swingarm hole up to 17mm, was a easy thing to do.
It whas a 45min job to take the clutch and cover of for smooth survice, and drill it.
Today put the engine in, and it doens't fit in the front. But now i now whats in it's way and what i have
to cut out the frame.
Should I make a welding calibre( If translated correct) for deforming when welding on the frame???????
Or Is that not a probleme???? The main frame tubes are BIG and massive.
