Future Mods Include

Redesigned Expansion Chamber (Need to shorten up the header section and get better flow at top end)
USD Forks (Probably RM/YZ80 relaced to 18" alloy rims)
Stainless Spokes (yeah I know..Stainless and Magnesium React and the softer gets eaten away hence loose spokes but that wil only occur in the presence of H2O I Assume)
More Porting! (Actually I'd Like To Get A KX125a1 Barrel But You Have Heard Of The So Called Hens Teeth And Do They Really Exist??)



COSTING (mind you I do the work myself)

1x KH125 From Wreckers $250au.(not running but not far off)

EXAMPLE A

Time to build approx 2 weeks
(+ countless hours trial and error that I prefer to call research and development which will prolly continue indefinately)
Footnote
All These Mods err..surgical procedures!..were all performed at home using 'Normal Kitchen Utensils'
'ceptin the reboring of the piston canal.
