Hello from Calgary, Alberta

Post by wheelin4fun »

Hello all. New to the forum but definitely not new to riding. Just picked up a '91 KDX 200 last year and love it. I ride mostly single track with it and it works great. Some things done to it are '02 KX500 complete front end, recently rebuilt rear shock and heavy spring, Pro circuit pipe, completely rebuilt rear linkage and wheel bearings and fairly fresh top end.

Welcome to the board. I need to find me a pair of those newer USD forks. The 89-92 conventional forks just do NOT cut it. Even after a rebuild they are too soft with stiction.

The riding is great out here. Some of the best single track I've ever ridden.
