Money. Compare the price of the stock KDX forks to KX forks on ronayers (using buykawasaki.com).
There is no excuse on the piston, though.
Want More Info On The 220 Pistons.....

re: 'Ack. They don't make them....they don't supply them.'
OK. They HAVE them made to THEIR specifications and SELL them under THEIR name. How's that?
How many parts in a Mustang are actually made by Ford? Not most, I'd bet. It's still called a Ford....even if Ford doesn't make MOST of the parts IN the thing.

Sounds good. Your earlier posts pointed to them as being the supplier to Kawasaki. I am thinking that is not the case. I am not working the loading dock at the Kawasaki factory, so that is just me thinking.

FRP (Fredette Racing Products) makes a replacement kick starter that is smaller and stronger than the stock KDX kicker. All the 220 pistons have issues. If your bike has not had a top end service done i'd tear her down, clean everything up and replace the piston/rings if they are the originals.
