Default And now for something different; KLX250sf

My new '09 KLX205sf. Got her 2 weeks ago and promptly ordered/installed red panels from the "s" model, edge tail light, wheel stripes, borgeo rack and Cortech bag. FMF slip on/jet kit here but waiting after the break-in to install. Only thing that might be an issue is the "s' front fender, it's longer in the back then the "sf" model and just clears the frame due to the different rake on the "sf". So far even when hard braking no issues, but it's tight.

That's cool. Mighty tempting. I've had mine for just shy of two weeks. Just the red side panels would be enough for me.

EDIT: I just looked and can't find red. What year side panels and from where?

I like the red trim on the wheels. Are they stuck on or painted?

The red radiator panels and front fender are from a '09 KLX250s. You can find them at www.ronayers.com The red vinyl stripes are from http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com...T.ac=SLIsearch

Just stack a couple of washers on the rear mouting bolts and it'll give you a little more clearance if needed.

Washers between the fender and the fork at the two rear bolts. One or two on each bolt should do the trick without raising the front too much.

I like the LOOK.

What are you doing with the black panels?

Looks cool, I like it. Kinda almost a retro look, I dunno why.

No real plans for the black panels, just sitting in the garage. If you want them pm me a offer.
