 bike with motor and shock forward vin # KAF... 1976 I think I'm fairly sure that shock postion on bike 2 is standard as I put this beside my 1975 250 & 400 the shock angle appear's the same , that is from what I have in front of me .

So my original 76 KX125 brochure is wrong and your old 125 with the wrong tank and guards on it and the moved forward shocks is the correct 76 model... Yeah right!
Like I already said the specs for both the 74 & 76 model 125's are exactly the same... Identical

Pecker I think your bike has been modified  ;) , I have a 74 125 and a76 125 and paint and stickers aside they are identical as per Jo's brochures.

I have a spare original frame swinging arm I could sell you to make yours correct if your keen

If as has been stated the KX125 74 to 76 models are all the same they can be considered by the MA Classic MX & DT commission to be listed as carry over models.  Does the same apply to the KX250?

If it does please someone say so.  Again carry over models are those that haven't really changed.

I will already be submitting the 1990 YZ 490 to be considered as a carry over model for Pre 90.

Bikes that people think should be in a different year group because they only changed (in their opinion) small things (like fork size, shock length etc) do not count.

No Kev the 75/76 250 & 400 have moved up shocks and more travel than the 74 model.

There's that paint issue surfacing again. I will tell you once more, and once more only, if you don't have a dated invoice from Nock and Kirbys pertaining to colour, batch number and who was rooting' your granny at the time your bike is in Pre 95, no ifs , no buts.
