Those are big Showa's, right?

I don't know that anyone has put a set of Showa's on a KDX. But...I didn't go looking to find out, either.

They might be a bit tall!! How do they measure side by side to the KDX OEM fork?

KX forks are tall already. It will be interesting to hear how it turns out?

Re: KDX stem?

I have no idea.

$200 is a steal. ..assuming the inners don't look like a smiley face....

I have 2 sets of the KX 250F/RMZ 250 forks on both of my kdxs. Of course, they needed to be revalved/resprung for my 200+ weight and woods riding but otherwise they are great forks.

By using the KXF forks, I was able to get a BRP Scott sub mount triple clamp setup for mounting Scotts stabilizer. I thi nk this is a pretty sano setup.

The forks are not much longer than the 03 KX 125 forks I was using before.

The beauty of it is that a lot of guys blow up there motors on the KXF/RMZ 250 bikes so the forks are getting pretty easy to find on ebay. But that was a smoking price. They usually go for double what you paid.
