Wanted to buy: Pre 75 or Pre 78 KX250 or KX400.
« on: May 05, 2015, 06:51:28 pm »
Gday all.
I am interested in purchasing a 74 KX250. I would also consider a 75 or 76 model KX250 or KX400 and race it in the Pre-78 class.

If anyone is interested I have a very nice and clean 2006 CRF450X with 11 months NSW rego on it and can arrange a swap deal....
It's a long shot but you just never know I guess !!  :)

 Cheers,
Dave.

He knew. He was just playing games.
Based on shock position, I'm 99.999% sure the red/black one is a 74, the green one is a 75.

Hey guys - after some researching I am broadening my search to include a 75/76 KX400.

Many thanks!

Thanks guys. Yes that is pretty good buying. Looks like it would still cost quite a few hundred to get it race ready though.

About 3 hours ago I actually struck a deal on a 76 KX400 !  :)
As a mate said to me ... I must really hate myself to wanna race one of these....  lol   :P

The search is over.... cheers to all for their help. The bike is from a forum member too !!   :D
