Front chain slide

Post by Rwomack441 »

Ok so I can’t seem to locate one of these for my 87. The original dry-rotted into pieces. Has anyone tried to make one and if so, what material and where did you get it?

Off Road Innovation has them. Listed for the Tekate, but they fit the KDX.

DC Plastics also has the sliders and Hotfoot intake boot and I am happy with the quality.
They also have some other KDX plastic parts that are hard to find.
BTW, I made a chain slider out of a plastic cutting board before finding these.
It kept the chain off the swingarm but these are pretty cheap and much better.
