Just need a little help identifying these parts.

Now this was advertised as an 1986 KX 125 frame, but it is nothing like the one on my bike now, any ideas?
Its obviously a KX 125, just no idea what year.

And finally, this swingarm.
No idea what bike its from, any one else?

Any help, much appreciated

In that bit on the headstock that is conveniently rubbed off!! Rolling Eyes ... there should be a frame number, I think this is the only sure-fire way of knowing what year it is from ....

Yeah, my YZ is the same ... the cables rub the frame number ... it is just silly!! Thumbs Down

The frame number is the key here .... you could try looking in the kawasaki workshop manual, it will have dates related to frame numbers in there ... your other alternative it to simply to ring Mr Kawasaki and ask!! Thumbs Up

Looks exactly the same as my 1989 KX 125 frame.

Swingarm isn't KX125 though.

From the black welded on the n/s of the swingarm it would either mean the sprocket is on the right, brake on the left...

Or the swingarm's upside down in the photo, which is more likely.
And that frame number's definitely been tampered with, that's not a cable rubbing.

That would tally with the sprocket on the wrong side.
