The back issues of #4 were water damaged apparently which dramatically reducedthe number of copies in circulation

If your KX250A5 is for sale, could you please advise how much you want for it, what condition mechanically it is in and upload a pic or two, thanks  :-)

Yes Bill I have the money to buy a KX now, what mechanically (other than the shocks) is the difference between the $4500 and $7250 bikes?

What bore is each of them on?  When was the big-end done in each of them?

I'll start checking on shipping from NZ now.

I think I have an extra #4. I shall have a look and get back to you.
Cheers pancho.


Thankyou Sir  :-)

 Sorry John false alarm, no spare #4. (unless I put it somewhere else).
 I have a full set plus #48, #34,and #33.
 I bought the extras when I saw the covers and thought "I must have missed that one"
 Sorry to raise false hopes John. 
Maybe I can get the article copied for you.
pancho.

Forks and shocks are the only real difference ,and an RM 400 front hub to suit the forks .  The dearer bike will have new nightmare plastics , new chain and sprockets and a new seat cover and new filter element. Also will replace piston, big end and mains on dearer bike so as its fresh .

I won the NZ Livewire champs EVO 250 class on the std one a couple of years ago , so it goes well  :)

If your checking on shipping i can strip and crate up if that helps .

As for oversizes i cant remember what size their on  ??? one is plated so std and the other has been sleeved and i think on .50 OS

Hey Mick i guess you could fit an A4 tank but it would bot fit without some minor frame mods . The A4 tank sits in traditional round rubbers and cups at the front where as the A5 bolts through the frame at the front .

Apart from the Fox bits bugger all really  :) different muffler and an RM 400 front hub to match the forks brake lug.
