Radiator Screens..will ones from 86 KX250 fit on 87 KX250?

[dinkyguitar]

So I ordered radiator screens parts from partzilla.com and got screwed...(well, I would have liked 2 instead of 1)

They sent me 1 when I ordered 2 and when I called them they said the manufacturer has discontinued them  .

How did they discontinue them? I just put my order in last week.

I must have been the very last person in the entire world that received the last one in existence.

Anyway, just venting a little. Does anyone one know if ones from an 86 will fit an 87?

I could always modify them.....

It's going to bother me knowing I have 1 brand new, and 1 old.

dinky,

They have different part numbers but I don't know if they will fit...

this one is a 14037-1077...not the one you really want, but it's cheap enough that if it doesn't fit, no big deal....it's listed as "new, but not in original packaging".
for the price he's asking, I'd try it.

I was thinking the same...

I saw a pair just like that ebay, new NOS for $20 plus shipping....

I'm still trying to decide what I'm going to do since my main focus right now is getting the bike together..

Thanks guys,

ufoplast has aftermarket kx-plastics from 87 and newer...

or look just here www.nightmare-racing.com ... he sells kx replica plastics from 1974 and up...

no aftermarket company makes the screens, not UFO, ACERBIS, or MAIER...never have.
there was a company YEARS ago that made really cheap useless metal ones...they looked like chicken wire...and I think DEVOL made some, but they restricted air more than anything.

nightmare "might" make them...but I doubt it highly, since he has none listed or shown individually or in a kit....
screens/lovers are, and always have been an "OEM only" item, as far as plastic ones are concerned.
