Welcome to kdxrider.net.

Kawasaki never sold the KDX125 in the USA, so most of us won't know about it.
Thank you for participating on kdxrider.net. :bravo:

Is there a problem with your current KDX or are you just looking to update the looks?

As Jason said, we didn't get the 125 here in the US so it's a bit of a mystery as far as specifics. Not sure what your options are in Sweden, but if you are willing to cut your subframe and do that work, I would look for a newer KX frame or blown bike and swap the motor over. A 1999-2004 KX125 frame would be a good donor, but then here in the states they are easy to come by.

i have no problem with welding
but i Always look for plug and play parts becus this bike is street legal thats why i want to build on this frame.

easyer quastion then, kdx 125 1991 is identical with kx125 1991 looks the same even if kx has better suspention.

will kx125 1994 tank fit on kx 125 1991 ? if it dose i have lot easyer job will mount tank and buy one kx125 1994-> sub frame and weld on.

and i can try to finde kx 125 fork and rear shock
the Engine has 24hp with 8:1 in compression so i Think easy porting and one new head with 12:1 or better will give this Engine a new Life and Power.


best regards
