I don't think it's made it to the US yet. I'm building an 06 kx250 right now and want to see more pictures of the kit as well. Right now I think old style still.

I agree, the stock plastics are hard to beat. Hopefully, graphics will make the Polisport Restyle look better...just wish Polisport would have made the intake side of the number plate the same as the muffler side...Anyway, thanks for the pic DB.

It's not super expensive so wouldn't hurt to try out. The few things I don't like is the one big intake versus the two smaller on each side like oem. Wonder if it changes the power at all? The side panels go across the air box so does it get wider and also rub on it? And I think the side panels show a lot of frame.

Tbh, I’m not a fan of the “‘19” plastics on the 2Ts. I like the “‘18” better, but it does kinda frankenstein the bike.

I bought an adaption kit for mine and all the ‘18 parts. (I just put it back together this week and even tho I like the look and ergonomics, it’s a pain trying to fit everything back together compared to stock) I think the 18 plastics flow with the frame decent enough tho

I'm sure the more airflow will effect performance...may have to tinker with the carb a bit, but nothing major. I'm as curious as you how everything will line up. Hopefully someone can chime in and answer some of our concerns about the kit, I'll definitely give feedback when I get mine.

Guys, yeah, these kits fit nice.... see the images, the airboxes, sure, a little wider in the center, but not something you'll notice so much. The breather vent... nah, don't think you'll need to do any rejetting... it looks large, but the combined area ain't that much different to the standard plastics 2 side vents.
Polisport have done a great job of these... my images show both sides, if you want any specific images, let me know, the bike is here in our office right now... (Test Mule, so not final plastics)

All we heard for years and years was "why can't some company make new plastics for the 2-strokes". What happens? Polisport delivers multiple colorways for the RM, CR and KX and half of the posts in these topics are complaints.

Any product that is purely styling-based will elicit varying opinions

Yes Mr Polo, here is some from the photo shoot... again, it's a test mule, so colors ain't quite right, but, still pretty kick ass. A lot of people put considerable effort in this project, and there sure are many stupid comments, but, that's life in 2020. Love it, or hate it, you now have options. Keep it stock, fine, or, try the restyle. Not for everyone, for sure, but those whom want the option, without the massive hassle or expense.....we present the Polisport Restyle set, direct easy bolt-on!

It's definitely the cleanest kit available. And the price isn't bad so I'm sure I'll try one out eventually. Thanks for the pictures.

Thanks for the pics, I think it actually looks pretty good. Maybe I will give it a try on my 06 eventually.

They look good but it's 1k+ to do the full kit right. TX kit isn't as clean.

Graphics make a huge difference with that kit. Nice work guys!

Thanks for the pic's Scrub. Is it possible to get a pic or two with the seat off to see how the side plates fit against the airbox ? Good look'n graphics BTW.

Idk if anyone has it but I'd be curious to see what it looks like with factory kawi graphics even if it's just a computer template.

Hey Guys, later today, I'll whip the seat off and get a few shots around the center of the bike, show you how this air-box situation looks... Really, it's not that bad. Personally, I think most guys with an old KX Smoker, aint seriously racing, just more for hobby level, so just for a fresh look, yeah, a small intrusion into your 'space', but it's small... Maybe even offer a little more 'grip' on the bike, you'll see what I mean.

Here's some renderings we did, see some possibilities, In the flesh, this kit is pretty sick...

Hey Scrub, thanks for jumping in here with us and giving the info to our questions...it is appreciated. I'll be more than happy to receive a free restyle kit to showcase the product, lol.

No problem whatsoever, just hand over the seat cover too when I style a beautiful scrub over the finish line jump...in front of 84. Tell Herlings to crank up his training.

Man, I just spoke to Jeffrey, he is genuinely in fear.... He'd always had fears from a KX rider, now you step up and say you'll take him on. He knows, the top step is no longer his.... Dark day for him!

Does anyone know when this will be available? I'm anxious to see this kit with different graphics on it. Definantly looks like it has potential.

I see you put the acerbis x-seat seat on your kx250, what year/model acerbis x-seat is compatible for the polisport restyle kx250 plastics? The tail of my 2006 stock seat is too wide for the rear fender so it looks funky, seems you found the fix with that seat. Just wondering which bike model/year to order.
