Post by molevalance »

Hey i have a 1996 kdx 200 i am wanting to put upside down forks on it. There is a 93 kdx200 that is beeing parted out and it has upside downs already on it. Will these forks from 93 bolt directly on to my bike or will i need to do mods

They will bolt up if you get forks and triples.
The issue is that they are not really an upgrade.
KX forks are superior and have added adjustments.

Front brake hose is different, so look into that.

It's not a huge update.

Whole brake system is different. Get the whole front end and bolt it on. I used to swap the fronts of my 95 and 93 regularly.
