Fore some reason im having trouble finding where to buy the moose coil for my K5 hundy :( Anyone have a link?

I did some searching, looks like the Moose coil has been discontinued. Looks like Electrosport is the sole source. (Moose probably sold the Electrosport unit and just rebadged the product)

If memory serves me correctly, I think the KX500 has a larger od stator, and the KDX200/220 won't interchange. I do believe if you can find a stator off a early 90's KDX250, those will bolt in.

The Keyway on the rotor is not in the correct location for the K5.

pics from sandblaster..

Here's some measurements for the rotor:





Here is the KDX Stator info:
FITS 89-06 KDX200, 97-05 KDX220



Also, the KDX Rotor weighs 2.7lb +/- .1lb
