Hi Dutchie, Can you let me know more about the radiators you used? You mentioned they were special rmz250 units. I'm doing the same project (using a 2008 kxf250 frame) and I'm starting to look at how the radiators will fit.

Have you got any advice?
Cheers

Sorry for the late response, I'm to busy.

Befor my AF I had a 04 RMZ250, wich had stock to small radiators. In Holland we have mostly deep sand tracks and
the rmz was prouwn to get hot. So the dutch importer of Suzuki orderd overseized radiators for the "dutch suzuki's".
And I think they are only in Holland. I had to give mine stock pair to them and got new overseized own's for free. Only I bought mine old ones back.
The special ones are hand welded, I thought it would be a better choice and easyer to weld on.
I  believe the 08 are longer than what I've used. It could become an isseu. On E-bay you can buy overseized kx500 radiators. If I would do it over I would use those because I think they are shorter than mine's now.
Don't know If you gone run a bigger fueltank? I have a IMS and the left radiator hits it for 1.5 inch.

Mine rearbrake disc gets hot, not smoking blue. Just dark and gets weaker at the end of a 15min moto.

Am still running a stock disc with ebc pads.

Found this here: http://www.kxriders.com/forums/index.php/topic,9551.0.html
Sounds intresting, only don't think it keeps the disc cool.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Apico-Rear-Brake-Braking-Disc-Kawasaki-KXF-250-KX-250F-04-12-Motocross-Enduro-/160787330753
This wave disc should run cooler and sound oke.

https://www.google.nl/search?q=devol+brake+cooler&biw=1438&bih=685&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=T-UnVMriF6TMyAOM24GQDA&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAQ&dpr=0.95
Or the Devol caliper cooler. Looks great, sound more a second stage fix than fixing the probleme.

Anybody know if the are 250mm reardisc for the kxf or another idea??
