Kdx 125 to kx 125 front end conversion.

Post by Chimpey3000 »

Hello guys.
Noob here First KDX I've ever owned they are like rocking horse sh*t over here in the UK so glad I finally have one.
So I basically want to do the front end conversion but am struggling to find 125 specific info. I know the 125 didn't really make it to the USA mainly a Japanese and Euro seller.
I Have a nice set of 1994 kx 125 forks with triple clamp. Problem is all the details I can find seem specific to the kdx 200 which appears to have the stem pressed into the bottom yoke, however the kdx 125 stem appears to be cast into the bottom yoke.
So my first question is do I simply bin the kdx 125 triple clamp and use all of the kx125 set up ?
Sure there will need to be some shims involved.
Secondly can I reuse the kdx125 front wheel assembly to retain speedo and brake etc?

I hope someone can help this struggling noob out.

Many thanks.
