ID:	129104here is my latest find. it has some good parts: kx cylinder with fresh .080 over bore and plating kx flywheel/ignition brand new front and rear fenders, hoosier flat trackers never run but have some cracking new douglas wheels all around with 6" wide on the front with a new maxxis razor on it and also a new duro flat tracker for the front. The bad is the frame is set up for a kx 500 engine and I dont plan to build one

    I guess I made the offer too soon. sorry. when I was told about this bike it was suppose to have an 86 motor in it, my friend was getting the motor and I was going to part the rest but since I ended up with the whole deal I really cant see parting it

    What about the fenders you said you had new in the package, or are these the fenders on this bike?

    I have a front fender in the bag. I was planning to use the fenders on this one for my other 85 and sell the nib front and perfect rears but now it looks that I am putting 2 trikes together. I have a set of faded maiers that I could part with 84t3 pm an offer for the frame the dual plug head is a stocker with some machine work now I just have to dig into my snowmobile parts for a coil with 2 leads

    Thanks for getting back. Looks like I'll just try and find another set or wait for one to pop up on ebay.

    tough find, good luck. I have oem fenders too but are badly oxidized kinda like yours. when I find the time I am going to do some resto work on them then sell. it is very tedious work and my attention span isnt all that, so it will pobably be a while

    What kind of performance do you get with having the two plugs, I under stand that bigger is better and more is never enough and that 2 will give more spark and burn fuel better but is this so you can run a huge carb or what, has me very curious. Do you have to have a beefed up stator or is this kinda like having one??

    I havnt run it yet. the idea behind the dual plugs is to get a more efficent burn and get the most out of the fuel that is in the combustion chamber. arctic cat did this on the old el tigre 400's and I have seen alot of race motors with this set up. funny cars run 2 distributers and 16 plugs. I really dont know the differance it will really make. I think there must be a reason it never really caught on with factory engines. but then again dont the new hemis run 16 plugs? I could be wrong but I thought I heard that somwhere
