You must be that same guy that sold me a packet of tic-tacs under the guise that they were ecstasy all those years ago. (250 bucks!) :(

why do your nuts over bike that looks the same every year
Because for one, its keeping the 2stroke dream alive.
 Two, its looks fantastic,
 and three, the kx250 2 stroke never came with an alloy frame.
Was it a 250f originally Simon?
Is the front end standard with nitrided staunchings? ( Is it an '09 roller)
I see it has a big'O' on the back.

You'll have to excuse my ignorance as I haven't paid much attention to moderns for a while, but I was going to ask what makes it different too.

I think it's the busy graphics that make the moderns all look the same.

So the 2 stroke didn't get the alloy frame, I guess that makes the bike an older design? How far back does the standard KX 250 date back to in it's current design?
Is the alloy frame that much better
or
have they changed the ergonomics of it as well
or
is it just the suspension that makes it better?

Is it way too small? A bit of work with the heat gun or hot water could soften it enough to fit if it's close. Maybe some rubber friendly grease as well.
