i waited a couple months now from when i wanted to buy new plastics for the misses kx80.

i been scouring the net, but coming up with nothing? anyone no if you can purchase them yet? or is it something i have to get from a dealer ship?

also was wanting to discuss how i was going to do it.

its a 2000 kx80/85 been bored out.
i was comparing the frames and they are very similiar, from what i could see i would only need to drill one section of the frame on either side and tack weld a nut on the back or pot rivet a thread in!

then going on from there, front fender may be a issue rubbing on the expansion pipe or frame, and not sure if the rear fender will fit? but all things to look forward to i guess hahahah

They are available here now but have yet to see one.
I think you may have to wait a month or 2 before any aftermarket stuff come out.

One word and one symbol: WHY?

Why spend so much time and moeny on plastics? by the time its all said and done you probably could have bought a pipe for it.

its already got a aftermarket pro-circuit pipe, and silencer.
but yes i could get vforce reeds or something.

but the plastics are trashed anyway, id imagine when aftermarket 2014 kx85 comes out, would be similar price to standard after market?

its like the last piece to the puzzle

The real answer is in the first post. This is the "missus'" bike. If his missus is anything like mine, then the asthetics are more important than the mechanicals.
