KX to KDX frame, body similarities

Hello my friends,
Ok I'm have a very difficult time finding accessories for the H series KDX. Like Acerbis frame guards with the rubber gripper sides...among many other parts. I recall the KX had a very similar perimeter frame at least a few years before the KDX H series got it. Do you guys know what KX years might be a good alternative for KDX bolt on parts? It's very hard to find anything for any KDX anymore.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you
C

"Acerbis frame guards with the rubber gripper sides"

They never were made for a KDX.



They are extremely few parts from a KX that will fit a KDX. The frames are not the same, plastic is not the same,motors don't just swap out without MAJOR work, etc.

Keep doing your research. Very few companies are going to make the latest and greatest cool, hip parts for a trail bike not sold in 16 years.

Sadly, nothing is cheap anymore, so any choice is not going to be like it was just a few short years ago.

Just get some UFO frame guards and use grip tape to make your own. Problem solved.

Those Acerbis ones with the rubber make the bikes they're installed on way too wide.
