I have an 89 kdx200. I've purchased a set of 2000 kx250 front forks. Where can I find the article on the valve modifications for woods riding? Thanks, I've looked all over..

Look up disable or remove the bladder.

The base valve should be softened. Surely someone somewhere has posted a stack. We can make suggestions.

I did a swap for a friend about 11 or 12 years ago with 2000 KX125 forks. I think I modified the float, too.

Look to see if I posted any details back in the day.

I'm in the process of making the same swap. In my case I decided to splurge and just have a local, well respected suspension shop rework the forks. I think it will be well worth he cost to me.

Would I use the same valve stack combo as is used on the conventional forks?

Not at all. VERY different.

How heavy are you? I'd ride the bike with the new forks before you start making any modifications.
