Hood Exchange???

yes it is possible and lots of people have done it you have to make a special bracket to support the hood and the light... there is a diy on this
 
yeah in each different forum the first couple threads are stickies they are threads so good the mods and admins stickied them so they would never get lost... lots of good info in all the stickies
 
im still waiting to pick mine up, supposed to be trading my 96 KX250 for a 01 blaster this weekend.
used to have a 05 blaster but sold it :(
that was my first 2 stroke, everything else was a 4 stroker (had 2 mojave 250's, a 1976 Kaw. k100 motorcycle POS)
