1994 E Series with stock USD's & newer top clamps?

Post by fishwater »

I have a 94 with the blue USD's & wanted to use a later year top triple clamp to add some rise & push the bars forward by flipping the mounts but I'm not sure if they will work. I know the 95 & newer clamps work with the conventional forks but didn't know if the USD's were a larger diameter? If the 95 forward clamps won't work then what other options do I have? At this point I'm pretty sure I don't want to do a front end conversion since the bike is completely original, I'm just looking to push the bars forward & add some rise.

1990 KX250 or 1990 KX500 is what you need. 1991 and newer are too big.
Thank you for participating on kdxrider.net. :bravo:

There's also different bar risers available out there that can do what you want:

That's interesting, I've never seen the bottom risers before. They look similar to Rox Risers, any idea who makes them?
