KX85 front end fits right in, you need to use the KX85 triple clamps, brakes and front wheel, (and steering head bearings)

they are a big improvement,

if you want a bit more HP you can put a pipe on it, (any brand) cut some holes in the airbox and put some bigger jets in it, for a reasonable power increase,

best to stick with the Kawasaki Kx85 parts as it will require less work to fit, the KX100 is a modded 85. the KX85 has changed little in the last 10 yrs so a front should be had from a wrecker easily enough.

and the 98-00 KX80 forks are the same as well,

Besides doing the exhaust, bigger carb, cam, hi comp piston even a big bore kit, plus the suspension changes not a lot.
You will soon reach the point when the money spent would have been better served to buy a MX bike and not a trailbike, unless you intended to make the quickest KLX140 around.
