Post by Colorado Mike »

Looks like I'm committed now, I won these last night: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... otohosting . They'll go with the axle I won a few weeks ago. Now I just need the trees, a wheel, spacers, and probably a ton of little doo dads that'll run me to the poor house. No turning back though. Is there anything I need to know about getting my Scotts damper moved over? Mine is mounted USD, with the clamp-on rod with the stock forks.

Thanks Kay Dee, I emailed the dude and asked about the spacers. He's got them , so that's one more thing off the list.

About the Scott's... It's just an adjustment thing after you get a new top barclamp mount for the KX forks. The angle is different, you will see once you have the forks mounted. Just get one for a computer too.

bastids, I was hoping to avoid that. Oh, well, maybe I can make the switch to tapered bars then. And change my bar guard mounts... it never ends. :roll:

Well, those forks came in today. They look great. The seller was great to deal with, I emailed him asking if he had the wheel spacers available, and he got right back to me and sold them for $5.00. When I opened the envelope in the fork box, not only were the used ones there, but he sent a set of brand new ones too! he also sent the Race Tech install sheets, the original valves and a bunch of Race Tech stickers. His name is racertoy, so if you ever see him selling something you want, have confidence in him. Well, looks like I just need to find an '03 wheel, and some triple trees and I'll be in business.
