Hey All,
I recently bought a 1992 KDX250SR and the forks need some serious attention... the seals are leaking, the springs are too soft, and the action is "sticky" or "notchy"... it has been suggested to me to replace the springs with 0.39 (I weigh 170#), replace seals, and slider/engagement bushings. I think the recommendation is great, but I wonder if I can really pull it off...
I am mechanically adept, but I don't have a seal driver or cartridge rod puller. I'd rather not send my forks back to the US for overhaul, but wonder if I'd be throwing my cash down the hopper if I try to do this myself.
Please advise... thanks.
