Plastic Conversion
I have a 94 kdx 200 and was wanting to replace the plastics. I was wondering if any year KX 125/250 plastic kits are compatible. I have the 01 kx 250 front end for it i just have to install it. I found a complete set of KX 125/250 plastics for a lot cheaper that the KDX plastic. I will keep the headlight but the tail light i am not to worried about. And would I have to replace the tank as well. Thanks in advance guys i appreciate it very much.

Re: Plastic Conversion
Without a massive amount of plastic cutting and metal bracket fabrication, one will never get a KX kit to fit.
Front fender can be changed... Numberplate is not too much trouble to make work. Rear fender from a 1988 or 1989 KX may work, but if you are wanting something that looks flat and modern, it will be a cut and hack and have gaps.

OK thank you i see that the kx 500 plastic is a pretty minor job to swap out. I like the headlight but do not like the rear fender. Mine are kinda beat up i will prolly just order the UFO or Meir plastics made for this bike. Just wnated to see my options

Re: Plastic Conversion
If you take the motor out and put it in an 03-05 KX125 chassis, you have tons of different plastic options!
