I do not think UFO still makes those rad shrouds. I actually just sent letters to all those manufacturers listed on that ad to see what is available. I will post the results.

Thanks,
Mark

is that 40mm Mikuni Carb a stock 1986 KX250 carb?

if so its $170 new from kawasaki and i might get it.
i am trying to build a Tecate similar to this article.

i am buying an extended axle, a cal-fab swingarm, aftermarket pipes, and also looking to get the kx carb and head gasket.

thanks,

I know the 40MM carb was standard on the 86 KX500. I'm not sure about on the KX250 though.

i am running a 40mm flat slide and it rocks. 8)

[sportvette]

does the larger carb bolt up with no problems? or do you need to buy a carb holder on the engine side?

thanks,

i also run a 2000 kx reed cage with a slip on K&N filter. i do not think the airbox would fit.
