92 to 93 fork swap

Post by roger543 »

i just purchase a 92 kdx 200 and the front forks needs to be rebuilt but there not kdx forks and no one knows what forks they are, so getting parts to fix them is a problem. i found a pair of 93 kdx 250 forks and was wondering if they would fit in my tree? 92 had standard forks and 93 had inverted forks . thanks

kdx250 has 43mm kyb USD, 93-94 kdx200 has 41mm kyb USD. neither will fit in your triples and not really worth the trouble of making them fit. kx125 forks would be the better route.

lets see some pics, someone here will probably be able to identify them

ok will post pics . I looked in my dealer manual and these forks have no adjustments like the book says i am suppose to have. The bottom are just a allen bolt with no adjuster the book says it has them and the air valves on top don't look like the book either

easiest way to upload pictures is to first upload them to a host site like photobucket and then post the link here
