I like my tusk lift but when it came it was way out of spec on the drop. The screw was put too much and the bike dropped like a rock. I had to do some tinkering but I figured it out.
Thanks Cody! So fortunate to be able to come across some of the stuff. If only I was a few years earlier it would have been a little easier to source it lol. It's harder to build one of these and find these parts now, even year after I started looking.
Love the attention to detail of this vid! I am doing a custom build on a 2001 KX-250. Carbon and wet charcoal frame. Still looking for a new power valve shaft if anyone has one sitting around. Thanks!
Thanks dude! Sounds like you're going to have an epic build on your hands as well. Check out marketplace for someone parting out a bike, might come across one!
I would put loctite on those sprocket bolts. I bought the same nickel plated bolts for my 05 Cr250 and they came lose. Good thing I caught it before disaster. Just a heads up!
Awesome,so jealous,...a newer model KX450 front brake master cylinder works and ASV brand clutch lever is like butter on my '99 Do you have a paint code somewhere? Thx
@@GregHitchkoI've been watching your videos and rebuilding my 2002 kx250 and I'm at a stand still because I can't find a kick starter assembly for my bike I bought a new shaft and need the kick starter do you know where to get one I tried rocky mountain and 4 other shops no luck
@@GregHitchko Oh Greg. My PC 304 shows up today (currently on a turbincore 2 I made into a shorty) but I searched around and found a new PC silencer with stinger. It was really easy to find. So I ordered that this morning too. Now I’ll have 3 for my pile of metal and plastic.
Hey Greg ! The bike looks awesome great job bud. I don’t know how you find and track down all them parts I can’t find anything aftermarket for this year kx. Really do you have elves working in the back room? I’m also rebuilding a 2000 kx250 but I’m building a super moto. Have to say thanks for all your videos huge help especially the one with the bad cases. I was just about to Reassemble the motor but after that video I sent my cases to fletchers 2 weeks ago he said no problem a few days with him and send them back well I was checking on them because it been 2weeks and only call from him was when he received the cases. That’s the only thing I’m wait for to put the bike together I already cerakoted them along with half the bike anyway I was calling everyday last week and no answer I can’t get a hold of anyone at fletchers did something happen in Tennessee wondering if you might have any answers for me because I try email too with no response. I hope everyone is ok there I don’t see him running off with some old kx cases.. lol if you can help me if there’s another way I can contact fletchers I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks again for the videos and I’m looking forward to seeing the kx finished and running
Thank you James!! Yeah so like I said with fletchers, we had a storm come through and freeze everything since last Sunday. Insane how there is no infrastructure to clear snow or ice! No plows or salt. But it warms up today so I'm assuming businesses and schools will be back in session tomorrow. Give them a shout on Monday. They are normally really good at answering! Keep me posted dude 👍🏼
Hey bud , thanks for the good but bad news about the weather. I sure hope you guys there are ok? I kinda had that feeling it was weather related I’m in New Jersey we got a little snow and been really cold not complaining though gave me time to try and catch up to you with my build. lol I probably would’ve been done already if I never came across your channel. I so glad I did them oil ports where really bothering me I knew they had to be the problem. I was hoping that it would blow up on me after l just did all that work and money into the motor. I copied a lot of it from you. I really appreciate your videos because I’m looking forward to see how it’s going to run with the polished transmission I never did it before so I gave it a try. I’m going to do my yz if I like it .. well I took up enough of your time already so thanks a lot for everything can’t wait to see the bike finally finished in the next video and I will keep you posted with my bike PEACE!! Lol
If only it was real kashima! It's just kashima colored ano which still looks amazing! @precisionworx did the coatings first and then I sent it off to PC to revalve, and set up for my weight. Coatings can be $800-1000, then the suspension work is another 1,000-1,500 depending on what you do!
Looks great Greg. You and MxRevival should have a build -off. You build a bike for Charles and he builds yours and raffle it off. Do a colab to boost your subs.....its crazy that you aren't getting the subs/views. Cheers from Aussieland
Awfully good you mean ;) I sourced the same color that Pro Circuit used to use so it's 100% correct. My camera and light is playing tricks on your eyes and doesn't do the color justice in the garage.
@@craigdawson3450 yeah it's a fluorescent green not the oem Kawi green. I was bummed how the camera was portraying it when I was editing but once it's outside in the light it's 10x better 👍🏼

So sick man!! This beautiful machine is incredible. Nice work on all the details!
Thanks dude! Really happy with the way it turned out 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Dream build right here! Love everything you're doing Greg, cant wait for graphics....cherry on top!
Cheers to that, thank you Leonard! Next week the video will be dropping ;) 🙌🏼💨. I appreciate you watching my man
Nice .. I'm glad I'm done with my 93 kx250
Heck yeah dude! #teamgreen
This was an awesome build video and deserves more views and credit! Awesome job man
Thank you for the kind words my man! Taking it slowly but surely 🙌🏼💨
Let’s go!!!
I know we've been waiting a long time for this, thanks Chris!
That bike as turned out super sweet😍all that carbon as well that’s one sexy bike fair play Greg
Cheers Dan thank you! The carbon definitely was not cheap but sets the bike off for sure.
Wow absolute beautiful bike great work man!
Really I appreciate the kind words my man! Thank you 💨
Great looking bike 👍
Cheers Matt! Much appreciated man💨
Dream bike right there!
Thanks dude! It's been fun 💨💨
Love it man. Got a minty 1998 YZ250 ive had for years. going in for refresh number 4!
That is amazing dude! I wish I had done that with my 03 yz250 I had back in the day. I applaud you
I like my tusk lift but when it came it was way out of spec on the drop. The screw was put too much and the bike dropped like a rock. I had to do some tinkering but I figured it out.
Oh dang! Glad mine wasn't like that but great that you were able to figure it out. One of my favorite things in the garage now.
Great job on the build bro, you got all the goodies for it! Nice work man!
Thanks Cody! So fortunate to be able to come across some of the stuff. If only I was a few years earlier it would have been a little easier to source it lol. It's harder to build one of these and find these parts now, even year after I started looking.
Beautiful... make want to start another build!
Thanks Zach! You know I support that move haha
Yeah i mean i cant add anything to it than well done! She is a beauty.
Haha thanks man, I appreciate it!
For the front tripple clamps and shocks is it of a kx250f
Where did you get the front and rear shocks? The bike looks amazing

Looks great Greg ! Little john from the UK
Thank you as always little John, much appreciated!
thats clean
Thanks my man!
I would put loctite on those sprocket bolts. I bought the same nickel plated bolts for my 05 Cr250 and they came lose. Good thing I caught it before disaster. Just a heads up!
Thanks for the tip dude! I'll go back and make sure I do that 👍🏼👍🏼
Will that crf master cylinder work on a 98 kx250
great job, where did you get the suspension coatings? Need a good reasonable place to get some forks done. Thank you!
Thanks dude! I got them from @precisionworx on instagram. They did an hell of a job instagram.com/precisionworx?igsh=MWZrNTBsdXptd3U4dQ==
Awesome,so jealous,...a newer model KX450 front brake master cylinder works and ASV brand clutch lever is like butter on my '99
Do you have a paint code somewhere? Thx
That's a solid idea too on the newer KX450 front reservoir! The paint code is Tiger Coatings Fluo green 49/51340, it's the color that PC used 💨💨
Might as well have Jerry refresh the ultra rare clamps. Its looking incredible
I may have him do it down the road. Didn't want to spend the money at this point😂. I probably should have just done it now though

4 hrs on the swing arm? You need to look into purchasing a second hand tumbler Greg. Those units with proper ceramic media do wonders :)
Labor of love that is for sure haha. Do those things come large enough to handle a swing arm? Cant imagine they are cheap, and I'm one cheap mofo haha
How did you order the works pipe I’m also building a 99 kx 250 and i didn’t see anything on there website for a 99
Call up PC and get on their back order list for it. It'll take a while until they get enough people to produce them but that is what I did!
Hey where did you get the Pro circuit clamps from??? I've got an 2006 KX and have been trying for ages to get a set.
Man these clamps for the 99 are really rare, these PC bronze ones are rare all around, eBay, forums, you just need to keep your eyes peeled!
@@GregHitchko Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Was that 304 NOS? They don’t make them with that angled tip anymore as far as I’m aware.
Nah it wasn't NOS, I was able to score two, one off ebay and another from a buddy. I just refurbed it and rebuilt it.
@@GregHitchko nice. Id rather have that end vs what they offer now.
I might order up a 304 myself.
@@someoneyouknow96 I hear you on that. I truly wonder why they don't make the stinger anymore?
@@GregHitchko yeah, im jealous.

How much it. Cost for kashima coating and dlc for forks and shock? Pro circuit did it all?

@@GregHitchko Thanks for the info bro. I saw your bike at A2
Огонь! Подари мотоцикл
Quedo hermosa la moto, por favor pone los subtitulos en español 🙏🙏
Gracias amigo! I need to figure out how to put them in Spanish.
@@GregHitchko thank you so much !! 🤝🤝
Hmm the coating was so so on the shock.
And the lugs on fork aint pretty if they did them too
But the build is so cool👍
It's difficult to anodize those cast aluminum parts like the shock body. But for sure looks way better than oem. Thanks dude!
@@GregHitchko Ok i can apriciate that answer .
Thank you for your reply
Crows foot for torque wrench
Looks great Greg.

MTL 80 wheight oil aint EQUAL ENT to 10W-40.
Not in viscosity or anything
Just sayin
The green on the frame looks awful the green isnt illuminous enough
Awfully good you mean ;) I sourced the same color that Pro Circuit used to use so it's 100% correct. My camera and light is playing tricks on your eyes and doesn't do the color justice in the garage.
@@GregHitchko ahh cool looks more pastel than illuminous kawasaki green
@@craigdawson3450 yeah it's a fluorescent green not the oem Kawi green. I was bummed how the camera was portraying it when I was editing but once it's outside in the light it's 10x better 👍🏼
@@GregHitchko nice one those golden forks and triple clamps set that bike of it looks amazing
You don’t need to say two stroke when you say kx
You know, but the algorithm doesn't ;)
Well, the newest generation of riders know a KX250 as a 4T so….
@@PNW_MX222 sucks to say that's the truth 😭
