Just got my 93 kx250 rear fender today and after holding it up, I realized that it does not even come close to fitting between the rear holes on the subframe, I read what you guys have said to grind(front part by airbox, and exhaust lip) But how about not fitting between the rails? Thank you in advance. Sorry for all the posts lately just got this thing and trying to get it put together so I can ride it this weekend.

Just sqeeze the fender together and it will go between the subframe rails (try putting the fender on a heater vent for a few minutes to make the plasit warm before you begin).  You might also have to use a hair dryer to soften the plastic next to the air box in order to get it to flex enough to put the bolt in.  If this doesn't work, post up again and we'll get you through.

Things are easing up so i'm hoping to get it going / finished in the next couple of days. Thanks for the patience and understanding.

Oh.. BTW... black and white looks better than black and green :lol:

Uh, unless I'm mistaken...Black -n- White is an Al Baker thing...and AL was a HONDA guy! :shock:

Green is the color of Kawi's!

Green is the Color of the Army. Oh, I get it...you've had enough "Green" for one lifetime!

Was going alright until I get to where the seat has got to go on. In the pics posted on this site it looks factory mine  has a big gap unless I cut the corners off the fender. My digital is dead right now and I cant find the charger if anyone could post a pic of there modified fender I would appreciate it.
