I have a 02 Kx 125 PC bike I'm doing a restore on. I'm not spending 1500 on a set of Khi hubs. I'm curious as to which hubs will work on this from the later model kxf. Talon hubs look good and have the larger diameter in the center of the hub as tusk is also. No one has these billet hubs for a Kx anymore. Just gonna put a nice set of hubs on excel wheels. I do realize that in 03 the rear brake rotor changed to 4 bolts which is better any way. Just want to make sure wheel spacing is all correct. Any info will be appreciated.

Have you emailed a hub company to see if they have the hub dimensions? That may be your best bet. I would imagine the axles are different on the kxf's so may not fit in your 02's fork lugs.
What about putting on a complete front end from a kxf -wheel & forks? You will then get newer technology forks as well.

Just the rear axle size is different so I'll change the bearing and it'll be good to go. Thanks Kyle.

With the rear axle size being different, are the axle blocks suitable, or will they need some modification?
Have you got any pictures of the bike? PC kx's are lovely looking machines!
