2005 KX 125 frame - will it work?
jonny500:
where are you
PowerFiend:
I have an 03 KX125 as my starting point, you will need a 250 cradle. The 125 cradle where it angles up just after the lower engine mount hits the cases by the ignition.
I got an older 250 frame (they are cheap) for a donor cradle, I think it is a 96/97, but anything from 98-2002 will also work.
As long as the cradle mounts to the main frame like the 125 you are good, here is one like I got:

ENGINERD, a 125 frame would work just fine, you would have to replace the whole engine cradle though.
Tell you what,...... If you buy my 500 engine that is for sale......I will chop out the whole cradle from the 500 and send it to you.

I would find somebody that can bend tubing and have them bend you some new rails similar to what Jfab is doing with the Aluminum should be quite easy.

NICE! Then I could use either a 125 frame, or an 04/05 250F frame like you did.
