GOOD LUCK

Um do you guys think that the flywheels of 2 kx250 1989 marks would be diffrent, becuase maby i should phone the bike shop and tell them they should look if it is or not maby it could be ?? :?

Thats what I was getting at. Maybe someone thought they are all the same, but its possible the magnets are a few degrees different. Like i said, this has never happened to me, I'm just guessing. You would have to compare them closely. I would take that bike to someone else, or just keep messing with it yourself. It sounds like you are a better problem solver than the bike shop guys there.
  Pull that cover, remove flywheel nut, (impact works the best here) see that the key is in the slot, then I'd pull the flywheel and check timing marks.
  I think you can use a timing light , somehow, but again I have never ran into this kinda deal to know how to. Guys running an adjustable aftermarket ignition, may be better reference because they time their engines with a dial indicator. Its probably something to do with that flywheel replacement.
