1984 Kx 250 with pics
« on: July 12, 2011, 12:38:07 AM »
hi guys havent posted for a while have finerly got some pics of my
1984 Kx 250, i dont get much of a chance to ride it as iits hard to find
places to do it over here in england, havent started the bike for 9 months,
so i througth i would drag it out of the shed for a dust down, and took a couple
of pics. i put some new fuel in and hey presto its starts secound kick
not bad for a olden of 27 years.
i am thinking of selling as i dont get much use, or i may tear down and fully restore
to factory issue, rebiuld the wheels, new plastic and paint ect ect.
so here are the pics



still need to do a bit more cleaning as it was very dusty last time i rode it

Hey Jinxy,
  Your bike looks excellent for an unrestored '84.  Finding restoration parts I think would be a real Challenge, but I think alot of guys enjoy the "Hunt" as much as putting the bike back together.
   Thanks for posting the Pic's it's not everyday you come across an '84 250!

i have rebuilt the engine,powder coated the frame, and lots of otherthings when i got the bike back
in 1992, engine still sound sweet no rattles or knocks, yea i know about knightmare if i keep it,
i will be in contact with them, its still fast for its age still wheelies in all the gears, great fun.
i never got the shrouds with the bike, i am looking for some, i think they make the bike
along with the original style rear mud gaurd, not many of these bike left now.
i have ridden it on a full mx track, it just loves the big jumps, i may race it here, we have a pre 85 section
that why i got the bike i  the first place.
thanks for the coments guys, my next outting i will video

Sweet machine!  I had a '84 250, I sold it to a midget car racer back in the early '90s. He said they liked those water cooled non power valve engines. :?

Beside the missing plastics it looks to be in good condition, too bad your thinking of selling
