'91 KDX 250 Build thread, all advice, tips, criticism welcome

[PacificNWRider]

Apologize if there is multiple pics was having some troubles getting them posted.

[PacificNWRider]

I can't speak for others on here, but I like seeing the pics and details from bike builds. The KDX250 and 200/220 are very close but do have some unique details from each other. Share away, I can say with pretty high confidence that nobody on here has ever complained about sharing moto pics!

Ok, good to know thank you, I will work on getting some more stuff together to post.

Thanks for the update. Though disassembled for many years, I actually own a 1991 KDX250. It is definitely a fair bit different than the 200/220.

There are a good many here that read without replying. Keep up the good work.

Well shoot, what do we need to do to get that thing back together ?? Thank you for the encouragement

More than a miracle!

The pics are now working. It looks fantastic!! Congratulations on seeing your hard work come through for you!

Well, after what I just went through I kind of feel like a miracle worker, ha.. Looks like i'm on the other side of country, but heck, I am willing to help anyway possible. Do you need parts or help with assembly? I've been known to do some pro bono to help someone out.

Thank you for the kind words, it was a good deal of work... and now... its time to ride it like it owes me MONEY, because it does!

[KDXGarage]

Nah. That's OK. I appreciate the offer, though.

Yours tuned out great!

Love the look of this bike! I wouldn't worry about the slight mismatch between the number plate and the fender

Beautiful build! Looking forward to the ride reports.

Thank you, yeah, I think I am going to just leave it be for now, summer going way too fast, thank you for the feedback

Beautiful build! Looking forward to the ride reports.

Thank you! So far so good, trying to put together some good posts in the coming days, trying to get some GoPRO footage for everyone.

Seems to ride like a cadillac, very smooth suspension, I have some adjustments to make, Im at 180 / 6'2" It seems to be in a pretty good spot so far out of the gate.

The bike is running very very nice. First kick, crisp response! I haven't railed it yet, but I have ridden it moderately and the bike is an animal. I can definitely see a problem getting out of 2nd gear on the trails, by the time you are on the pipe in second, you better have some room....Will be spending some time getting the sprocket sizes figured out.

Will definitely have some more coming when I can, lots of trips planned for the last month of summer, but I will try. Thank you for the input & compliments!

Hey man nice build. I just picked up a 92 250. I dropped the motor off for a full rebuild. I’ll be working on all the rest. Other than the motor mine is in great shape and all original from what I can tell. I’m doing a refresh/clean up for a rider not a museum piece. Can you link info on that tool to remove dents from the pipe and info on where to get factory decals?
