I have a 96 KDX200 and would like to find out what years/model rear fenders and front number plate from a KX125/250 is a direct bolt on to my bike. Just looking to make it a little lighter since I very seldom ride at night. Thanks

For a front fender and numberplate, you can pretty much pick one you like the look of, and make it fit. Most newer MX number plates match up to the fender. If you want to keep the stock fender, an older kx500 number plate is pretty easy to fit.


There are no bolt on kx rear fenders. FRPOffroad offers the maier mx style rear fender, which is the only direct bolt-on, AFAIK.

After I posted this I remembered that I have a KX250 front end, so that answers that question. I checked out FRPoffroad, but I hate to spend $60 on a fender. Is there a KX one that people commonly fit to a KDX that follows the body lines good?

If you really want to take the time to try and fit a KX fender then I suggest looking at what the KX500 are using for their bikes. The 500 frame is very similar to the KDX. Here is a link to some info on them. http://www.kxriders.com/forums/index.ph ... 456.0.html

it's plastic. cut it, drill it. that's how the KX rear fender fits on my bike.

I know I can make one work, but was hoping to find out what year(s) look best.

Yeah, just about anything can be made to fit. I have an '06-'08 YZ450F rear fender on mine! Anyways, check out the link I provided you and you will see some pics of those installs.

That's all well and good for an E series KDX. Not even close for an H bike though.....

True. I didn't even think about that he has an H. Man, I love my E series!

I will have to disagree with this statement. Bought a 04 KX250 fender, and there is no way to mount it and make it look better than if a 3rd grader did it. I should have known with the way the grab rails extend out the rear and the KX fender is about 2" too narrow. I guess I will have to shell out the $60 bucks for the FRP fender. Oh well, only out $20 bucks on a used fender.

Ordered a maier unit yesterday, should have listened, but have been accused of being hard-headed a time or 20. Ordered a KX250 numberplate too (should work since that is the front end on the bike).

THE LOWER MOUNTING OF THE KX250 NUMBER PLATE WILL REQUIRE A LITTLE CREATIVITY WITH SOME CUSTOM BRACKETS. IT DOES LOOK BETTER THAN THE OLD DRAGON HEADLAMP.
I'D RECCOMEND A CYCRA STADIUM STYLE NUMBER PLATE. THEY LABEL THE COLOR AS "WORKS CLEAR", BUT IT IS A SORT OF TRANSPARANT WHITE. THE LOWER MOUNTS ATTACH DIRECTLY TO THE FORK TUBES WITH CABLE TIES. THE KIT INCLUDES HARDWARE FOR TOP AND FRONT BOLT UPPER MOUNTING. I JUST PUT ONE ON MY 96 KDX WITH 02 KX125 USD FORKS. IT FIT NICELY, LOOKS GOOD AND WAS UNDER $30 @MOTORCYCLE SUPERSTORE. SORRY, NO PICS YET......

WHY DO YOU TYPE IN CAPS?

My bad, oops, I get it now. I'm not yelling, really.
