I'm seriously looking at the 351 kit for my Australian 2007 KLX 250, does Bill ship to Aus?

I was also looking at getting his Braided brake lines and then thinking about putting on the bigger disc brakes from the 2009 models...

I was on the phone with Bill earlier this week and he happened to mention the shipping cost to Aus has gone up recently. He defniitely does though, if you are prepared to pay the shipping.

I tried calling the number on the website and asked for Bill and they told me I had the wrong number...

Anyone have his email address so I can send him an email and then follow up with a phone call?

Go for the one your comfortable with 330 or 350. Stock wouldn't outrun an air cooled 84 xl250r I had one....
Careful, careful, careful with those Barnett springs. A former member of this board installed them and started finding pieces of them in his oil. Further inspection revealed most of the Barnett springs had failed, or were on the verge.

He replaced them with EBC springs and has had no problem since.

Tremor,
Do you remember where that post was? I recall members complaining about the EBC springs and recommended Barnett instead.

Yeah I called that number and asked for Bill and they told me I had the wrong number, I'll try again. I remember reading on this forum that someone had been contacting Bill by an email address but I can't seem to find it now.

If anyone has his email, I'll send him an email as well..
