KXF Brake Pedal On A KX

Hi, when you fitted the KXF 250 rear brake pedal to your KX did you have to add a copper or steel sleeve or is it only the 450 that has a bigger pivot hole?

I got a new KXF 450 pedal cheap, part number  13236-0097  there is a lot of play but need to make it work on a 1990 KX 125, thanks

I  watched that video about 10 days ago, i am trying to do the same with my 97 kx250, my pedal has a ton of of slop in the pin /clevis area. I have been trying to figure out the same!

I worked it out Borntworide, we were both being plonkers 😊 first job is clean the original pedal like I also failed to do and you will then see a steel sleeve inside the original, heat the alloy pedal near the pivot hole and press out, I used a long bolt with a stack of washers along with a 10mm socket and larger socket with large penny washers on the other side! Great idea all the same sandblaster  👍🏼

Updated incase some else needs this info

I figured since amazon as a great return policy I would order my test pedals from there, I got this one to start with.

It's pretty neat comes with double bearing and a steel bolt and the clevis threads match!  the only drawback is that the threads on the bolt are 10mm and the factory bolt threads are 8mm.  the style of the pedal it dam close to the same as my 97,  Thinking to send it back, have my 97 bolt milled down to fit bearing or have supplied but cut down and threaded to 8mm.  probably easier just to buy a new kxf pedal without bearings then purchase a new clevis!
