Im not sure of the year? As far as I can tell the only thing that is different is the front brake rota. I think they call it semi floating and floating .

You need 95 (I think) or newer.

I have a full set of KDX wheels, EVERYTHING bolts up front & rear. Got them for $50 each on ebay complete with wheels, tires, axles, spacers, odo drives, etc.

I was watching 3 KDX fronts on e-bay only1 seller got back to me and the 89 model doesn't have the drive hub for the speedo.....even though bikebandit.com shows the assembly having a drive hub. The other 2 are a 92 and a 91 but the sellers won't answer me if they have the drive tabs or not. Rear wheels I've been unable to find period. KDX or KLX for that matter.

The OEM hubs are $265 and $352each from most online vendors last I checked. I've yet to find a custom wheel builder that has KLX250 listed as one of their options. Anyone remember who Patrick used on the KLX DirtBike TV episode?
Here ya go...

OY! Just over 1/4 the price of the bike for hubs and wheels. Maybe I'd be better off picking up a used streetbike instead of an extra set of wheels for the KLX[sm=dontgetit.gif]

I'd love to find a set of D-tracker wheels for my bike but ultimately want ninja type painted to match

Adding a KDX rotor and master cylinder will give you noticeably more stopping power.

Can we confirm then exactly which KDX from which years will be a direct swap? This would be awesome information to have for those of us needing two sets of rims for dirt and street use.

I cant help as mine are from an 02ish but www.kawasaki.com has a great tool for parts. Get the part number for my 02 ish wheels then see what other year KDXs are the same.
