How about 250F forks and triples?

Post by garider »

I know that I'm asking a LOT of questions in the conversion forum. But you know what they say, "there is no such thing as a Dumb question".

Will the KX250"F" triples and forks work?

Sure...you can make them fit.... but those will cost you a pretty penny... and if they don't... something is wrong with them. :wink:

I have now got two pair from ebay. Both cost 350 and included the stock triple clamps. Wheel and axle was 200 more. Got both from roostin performance (?) out of north carolina. They seem to recycle a lot of KXF and RMZ bikes. FYI . . . RMZ and KXF were the same for 04 and 05.

No, unless you have a axle custom made or the existing axle modified to work in KX forks.

I went with a Trail Tech.

Trail tech me too!!! Works pretty good unless it gets really really wet. It sometimes gets really wet here in the NW. I just have the endurance computer. Maybe the vapor is better sealed. Washington company that inports the computers so I try to support the NW.
