Art5 (or anyone else who may have done an '03 or later hybrid),
I have been reading about the KX/KDX hybrids and read your post about using an '03 or later KX. I have loacated some 2003 KX parts and have some '03 KX forks on the way and was curious about how the '03 would be different than ebeck's 2002 hybrid. Do you have any pictures you could share with us or have any technical info that is different than his '02?
How similar is the '02 and '03 KX swingarm? Are both shafts 17mm? Does the '02 and '03 require the same mods?
I think I read that the KDX pipe fit without modification. Is this correct?
Were the head/frame mounts on the rear? Did this creat any unusual problems?
Any problems fitting the gas tank?
Is there a big difference in handling between the KX/DX and a KDX?
Thanks,
JC
