[QUOTE="Wudscrasher, post: 1032868, member: 66382"] Hi, fellow KDXers. New here, but have been lurking for awhile, getting loads of great info from you all, so a big THANK YOU. I bought a 2000 KDX220 a month or 2 ago, and have been tuning it up for the upcoming riding season. Last night, I was replacing the oil in the forks. After filling the brake caliper fork, I was pulling the slider up to get out air bubbles. At first, it was difficult to pull, then it 'popped'and slid up normally. I pushed it back down, pulled it up about 2", let go and it slid down, as if there was a vacuum pulling on it. I pulled again, and it 'popped' again. Is this normal for one of the forks to do this? The other one did not exhibit this behavior. My friend who was helping me wondered, since there is no rebound control, if it acts like a rebound control under severe bottoming. Obviously, the fork shouldn't compress to the point where the slider hits the bottom of the lower tube, and after reinstalling everything, the forks seem just fine. I was just curious if any of you have experienced this phenomenon as well. Thanks again, and ride smart! -- C.J. [/QUOTE]
