How old is too old?

Post by 2001kdx »

How old can you go before the kx forks won't work? Would 1990 kx250 forks fit? I can pick up a free pair of forks from a kx250, but the year is somewhere between '90-'95. What other parts do I need, triple clamp? Rim? Rotor? They are free and if they would perform as well as the 'H' series forks, it would save me money because the kx ones are sprung for my weight and my forks have a leaky seal.

Jump on em. :twisted: I'd get forks, wheel, rotor, axle, spacers, brakeline and caliper to be safe.
