    Looking to source a conrod kit for a 1995 WR250, anyone know if its the same as a 99 onward? I can find plenty of kits for the later bikes but not for a 95.

    The rod kit for the 99+ WR/CR 250/300 (for us yanks) is 125mm. The earlier 250's (92ish to 97 maybe) used a 129mm rod. I used the Pro-X Kit 03.6320 on my 1993 WXE250 without trimming the pin, but you may have to.

    Also, the earlier 250's have a 70.8mm Stroke x 67mm Bore, while the later 250's have a 72mm Stroke x 66.4mm Bore. Hope this helps.

    Update - KTM rod kit arrived and appears to be identical to WR250, I'll get the shop to press it in tomorrow so fingers crossed it's a fix.

    All went together fine with KTM rod. The one thing I did notice is that the KTM small end bearing has a narrower cage than the Husky. It looked like there was going to be a large amount of float in the bearing, so I swapped the needle rollers as they are the same length and dia from the KTM bearing into the wider husky cage. Should get the engine back in and running this weekend.

    Update - back in one piece bike appears to run fine although I haven't had chance for a ride yet. From what I can see so far the KTM rod works fine.
