Looking for Matthew Huxtable of Gisbourne, NZ!

Hey there!

I'm looking for a gentleman named Matthew Huxtable of Gisbourne, NZ. He made a post on another forum about a KLX250/TT600 conversion that I'd like to know about. Namely...how in the Hell do you wedge a TT600 thumper into a KLX250 frame?

Since I have one of those motors and a street titled KLX300R, it'd be really nice to know how.

Thank you for your help! My e-mail is in my profile...

P.S. Oh! And greetings from California!

Well, if you know someone who knows someone who knows him...

It's actually an SRX6 road race motor. It's got a high compression piston, cam, headwork, modified crank and rod. The SRX and TT motors from the mid-80's are the same, with the exception that the SRX has a taller 5th gear. That suits my needs pretty well.

The KLX big bore kits above 331 cc's can be, er, explosive. My current KLX has the 33 pumper carb and a fourstrokeworks header (among other things). It's a great low/mid-range trail bike. She lacks on on the top end, though!

Just exploring the options. I had tossed the idea away before I came upon his post.
