Any thoughts on this swap on my 96 KDX? Same as KX forks/clamps of same year?
Thank you,
JR

How hard was it to use the 2001 rm125 forks. I found a set 2001 rm 125 forks, triple clamps, wheel, brake assy, I was thinking about using for a fork conversion.

Are you guys saying the whole complete front end will bolt up like the KX? Triple trees and all, just basically swap stems/spacers out?
Thanks in advance!

right. Pretty much holds true for any complete front end, as long as the KDX stem can be swapped in. I'm using a yz front.
