Are you certain on that info? Dang I just bought a 1980 tranny.   All the stuff I read shows the 1980 as a 6 speed.  1980-84 all 6 speeds.  Im got on kawies parts fiche gonna compare gear for gear

 http://motorcycle-specs.com/motorcycle_specification.asp?manufacturer=Kawasaki&model=KDX250&year=1980



No offense to your Kawi dealer but I believe he is mistaken.
Tell him to look up a 81-84 KDX250 and count the gears...
This is what my research shows...
80 KDX250 5 speed
81 KDX250-B1 KDX250 6 speed
82 KDX250-B2 KDX250 6 speed
83 KDX250-B3 KDX250 6 speed
84 KDX250-B4 KDX250 6 speed
91 KDX250 5 speed
92 KDX250 5 speed
93 KDX250 5 speed
94 KDX250 5 speed

That is the info I pulled up at partszilla.com
Just ask the guy you bought the trans from how many gears does it have.
You can physically count them..
If he counts 10 including the one that is part of the shaft then it is a 5 speed.


If he counts 12 including the one that is part of the shaft then it is a 6 speed.

The four stroke engine: That's one stroke for producing power and three for wearing the engine out.
