Thanks. They'd cost too much to ship (to Canada) but I think another member was looking for some black ones a while go. Someone else may pick them up.

That is something different.. Looks really nice!
Are you sure there is a difference in the rake? Not sure about the 09 and later bikes but the 06-07 KLX s models are pretty tight between the frame and fender. I have a couple washers shimming out the back 2 mounting holes on my 07 s model.

Thanks CraigM

Which bike did you select when you ordered? The don't have the KLX250sf listed. Did you choose the Ninja250? I kinda like the complete trim and want to pull the trigger. Just wanna make sure I get the right trim.

Yeah there is a diff. Not much, but it's there. I printed out a bunch of stuff when I was deciding to buy this bike and that's one of the diffs between the S and the SF. The others (off the top of my head) are fork setup, wheels, tires, and gearing. Maybe one or two other things... I'm old. My brain leaks.

No I mean on the wheel trims. Not the panels. There's no option for a KLX.

just check the kawi site for my self, s is 26.5 degrees, sf is 25.5, so there is a marginal difference.

I'll be jiggered! I wonder if that's accomplished with the triple tree, or if the frames are actually different at the head tube.

Could it be a function of the wheel/tire sizes? Or is there something different about the fork/fork setup?
