Hello Arie,

If you need a piston there is a Wiseco piston for the early Honda MT250/CR250 that is commonly substituted. KT250 rod kits seem to be pretty rare these days, but you can use the later KX250 rod kit with a spacer under the cylinder (the rod is several mm longer). I can't think of any real problem areas in the motor beyond the normal wear items. A few people are making some replica parts and listing them at the KT/KX Page.

There is some information at my website on porting and pipe modifications I've done to my bike.

Some of the USA vendors are not against the idea of shipping overseas, so don't let that stop you.

cheers,

Michael

Hello Michael,

I've been checking out your site for some years now.

Two years ago I was planning on building a Honda CS90 trialbike, for which purpose I purchased a 1964 bike.

Your website showed pictures of the Ken Ives S90 Honda which I liked very much.

In the end I didn't want to change the original bike so I sold it on to another guy.

After that I did explore your articles on the KT250.

Kind regards,

Arie.

I am in the process of restoring a '77 KT250. Anyone know where I can find a set of new sprockets?

I tought they only produced the KT in 75 and 76

My bad, it is a '76.

I was looking on here and saw the bultaco style muffler that had been installed on a kt250 on this site

has anyone here tried this mod. I'm thinking about setting mine up this way looks like you would drop some weight and get rid of the side to side swing when riding in rocky or rough sections. looks totally kewl!

Thanks

Ya i want to do the same but i need to find a bike to do it on. My kt is almost totolly original and i dont want to start cutting on it

Hi, I know this is a bit late but here's what I did to my KT;

 

Designed a completely new frame

which required;

a new air box

a new exhaust, and silencer system

and a new tank

There's heaps of discution in weld or braze, and a picture or two in projects

this way I haven't chopped my original frame, but seriously upped the work required.
