Is it possible? I found a kx65 roller for pretty cheap, and i have a yz250 motor. i was thinking about buying the yz250 motor mounts, and modding them to this frame. is that at all possible or is it way too big?

i was even going to cut off the bottom part of the frame and weld it to the kx65 frame that way there is little modding left to do because it will be a bolt up deal.

what do you guys think?

Its possible...It would be a pretty gnarly ride but definately doable...I've seen 250s stuffed into 85s/150Rs and a kx500 motor in a kx 85 chassis...

stunt-ur · 09-01-2008, 05:02 PM

im sure it would be a f'in ripper hahaha

just wondering if its possible.

Small gas tank, big pipe.

SUZUKIRM12594 · 09-01-2008, 05:05 PM

im sure we can raise the gas tank...nothing that some spacers cant fix ya know?

bank on cutting up the entire frame and doing it all custom.

anything is possible but it won't be a weld a tab here and a spacer here kind of thing for sure.

oh im sure we will have to extend it and raise the tank, seat, and everything else a couple inches. but if we get a frame from a yz250 and cut the bottom half off, and weld it to the bottom of the kx65 frame, it should be nearly done...

Make sure to run a couple rim locks on the back. :P It will be one custom bike thats for sure.

SUZUKIRM12594 · 09-01-2008, 05:18 PM

You might wanna run stiffer springs front and rear...Or go with a whole different suspension setup all together...

stunt-ur · 09-01-2008, 05:20 PM

yeah ill have the stiffest suspension available for this...im gonna try and get an elka for the rear, if they dont make one, i may get elka to mod me one...

SUZUKIRM12594 · 09-01-2008, 05:25 PM
