Title: FOR SALE, KX250A5, excellent cond *** SOLD ***
Post by: John Orchard on August 24, 2014, 01:02:02 am
For sale, my second KX250A5, it seems a very low use bike, since doing the following work it has only done two 3-lap races at Viper last year and two 10 min sessions at my own track.

The only negative aspect that I could say about the bike is the chain had previously taken-out the original sprocket cover mounting lugs, hence the non original guard that I made.

The price is $4300, I will not be accepting any offers, it is worth the money.  I will not be changing the spec of the bike AND I will not be negotiating by email, I've already had confusion with someone by doing that.

For another $1000 I'll tip-in a spare complete engine.

* Fresh resleeve, new piston & rings.
* New plastics.
* New bearings & seals in crankcase.
* New wheel bearings.
* New swingarm bearings, seals & bushes.
* New headstem bearings.
* Near-new YSS rear shocks with comp & rebound damping adjusters.
* New .45 kg fork springs.
* New fork seals.
* New grips, Scott half-waffle.
* New fork boots.
* New PFR pipe & muffler.
* New RK X-ring chain & sprockets (alloy rear).
* New Unifilter airfilter.
* New tyres front & rear (never ridden on).
* New heavy-duty clutch springs.
* KDX cylinder head (fin dampers - quieter).
* 10mm less offset triple clamps (much improved steering & handling).
* New carb needle & needle jet.
* New alloy folding gearlever.
* Wide footpegs.
* Rubber bar mounts.

What gear lever did you use? Looks like a modern YZ. I need one for my 125.

I have a 09 250 two stroke and it looks the right shape , just unsure about the spline.
Did you like yours? Mine needed alot of jetting before it smothed out.

Title: Re: FOR SALE, KX250A5, excellent cond - $4300. Spare engine avail.
Post by: John Orchard on October 14, 2014, 12:17:35 pm
Still got the bike, the spare engine that I will let go with the bike for $1000 is available separately for $1500.  The spare engine has pipe, carb & complete electrics, it still has original sprocket cover lugs (might swap the engine with the one in the bike?)

I know this is a bargain, after just buying a couple of bikes that are suppose to be 'ready to go' and seeing the time & money they required to meet my 'ready to go' level.  To buy & build another A5 would cost you over $6500.
