A guy over at Thumpertalk has a 1991 KX roller for $150.

What to do with this rolling chassis? - ThumperTalk

What would be a really cool project would be to stuff an XR100 motor in an '83/'84 KX60 because they are the same as the newer ones, only they were air cooled with the pipe that went up above the engine-- leaving a ton of room for an XR100 motor to sit in there. You could get a '00/'01 KX65 front end on it easily. The only thing I'm not sure about is what to do about a rear shock. I was half thinking about doing one of these before. It would combine retro with pit bikes. Here's what the '83/'84 bikes looked like. ---L*64

That would be an awesome bike! With the stock motor or the 100 it would be a blast.
