I rebuilt a 87 KX250 a few years ago. Parts are hard to come by since this was a unicorn year for the KX250. It shared almost nothing in common with the 86 or 88. If you get one and can source the 88 43mm forks, go for it. 88's were cartridge and work a lot better

Chain was set to tight for a mud Race and packed up.

Tight chain in mud.

I think it was the chain tightening due to mud, and not letting the rear wheel turn. Chain looked guitar-string tight from the one shot I saw. I seriously doubt he was able to smoke the clutch that quickly. Tomac is known to use the clutch like a torque converter, and even with 450 power, has only smoked his clutch to the point of failure one or two times that I can recall. I will say that I believe the Honda is a step backward for Jo. I think the green and blue teams have HRC beat in 250 performance.

NPC's are part and parcel to the game of life be it Motocross or a Social Media Page, they be everywhere. If their programed to hold their line or wonder or to make inane comments they exist

Jackie Stewart can call them anything he wants; I could listen to that guy read the phone book. lol
