Front brake rotor diameters for 1993 and 1994 KX250/125
« on: June 16, 2016, 01:01:08 AM »
Anyone have bike tests laying around where you could confirm what size the front brake rotors were between 1993 and 1994 KX250 (or KX125 - same forks)?

The 94 caliper bracket is wider on the bottom of the 94 fork tube.    Leads me to think an increase in size in 94 occurred.. want to confirm this before scrounging for parts on ebay.  :D

Thanks!

just checking up on some kx manuals , i know from 91 to 03 all had the 220 mm front rotors ,with the floating disc come out in 92 on the front , not sure if the hub bolt pattern the same but that only a matter checking part numbers , these 220 rotors could of come out even earlier , the first kx only had 210 mm rotors dont know when they went to 220, the 04 kx250 went to 250mm than the front hubs change to a larger bolt pattern from 06 onwards than kawi went to the 270mm for 15 models , i know it hard to get 270 mm oversize for the pre 06 hub , there out there but not what i want , i was chasing one for my kdx 200 h no luck so getting a custom one done in 420 ss , they start of with a 270mm blank and water jet cut it to your desire , you can buy the brackets separate , the kdx uses a larger bolt with a different shaped head, bolt pattern the same as pre 06. getting of the track here but it might help others?

Looks like 1994 was the switch to floating caliper.

must have changed caliper ,the hubs are the same part number so the rotors will interchange.
