Too many different styles in one, for me it doesn't work or look right.

If that had original clocks, underswept pipe (still exiting under seat) and the chopper style number plate binned it would look quite good

How far could you lean that on a right hand corner before the number plate was trashed?
Quite a nice build, but with a few flaws.

There are quite a few touches that are wrong as has been said but for a bunch of old parts found in the back of the shed after a bunch projects i reckon its not that bad, he obviously didnt just bang it together. Ahh the KDX250... I liked mine. 93 import SR model from Japan. I Rallied it in the UK doing events like the Hafren etc. It was a beast off road, a bit tall and heavy with a funny steering geometry, but it was grunty and powerful. On the road it was a flyer and Ive often wished Id kept it and had it here for town, it makes a DT200R seem a bit tame. The engine is basically a KX250 of the era without the Boysen ports, but they are in the casing and you just need to drill em if you wanted to use em for more power. Stock its probably circa 40bhp and grunty tho, so the thing hes built would be a fun ride I reckon, someone should go and give it a go and report back
