Message: [QUOTE="saveaux, post: 1018510, member: 62424"] For the type of riding you do I would suggest scouring EvilBay for some sort of new front forks. Whether they are KX forks or CR forks thats up to you. Theres plenty of information on these forums to properly do the swap. I personally ordered brand new XR400 springs at $37 dollars a piece. After shipping I ended up spending around $90. The results that I got were.....well.....decent. You will still have mad fork flex, horrible handlebar flex (thanks rubber mounts) and the undesireable underhand that the stock KDX forks have. You can find fork sets on EvilBay all day long for $100-$400. Often times they are around $150. Although I am praising different forks I haven't done the swap, YET. On that note I'm not sure of exactly what you will need. I think this is a basic outline of how it works: most KX forks can use your entire brake setup, you will need your KDX stem pressed out of your triple clamps and installed onto the KX triple clamps, I believe your KDX wheel will not work so you will need a KX wheel also. If your at all intrested in doing this (which I HEAVILY recommend, especially since you do light MX) do some research and I think you will be happy with what you find. [/QUOTE]
