2002 kx250 powervalves
« on: August 19, 2016, 02:46:19 PM »
I'm building an '97 KX250 engine which I've put an '02 cylinder on to but I'm missing the power valves to fit it. I've managed to source every part except for the main wedge valve. Does anyone happen to have a spare one which they would be able to sell me?
My other option was to find one from an '03 to see if it would work as they look identical in the OEM diagrams although the part numbers are different.
Also, I am aiming to set this engine up for more peak power and I'm porting it accordingly, but I've noticed that the old reed cages are quite a lot wider than those of the later cylinders. Has anyone fitted a wider cage to their cylinder before and if so, how did it go? I only have an earlier model rad valve here and I am considering machining the cases to fit it in.

Random question but do you still have the old 97 kx250 cylinder with power valves?

I could be interested in buying.

Also are you looking for part number 49116-1196 ???

No I don't sorry. It came with a '95 cylinder on it  :cry: which needs to be re-plated, and so I only have '95 power valve parts.

Yeah that's the part that I'm looking for...I'm trying to see if there's a used one around first since it's such an expensive part brand new

Thanks guys i have sent you both a pm.

Also to note the 1995 cylinder shares the exact part that i need. My one just has alot of wear on the toothed gears.
