kdx220 fork springs

[thekdxkid]

Hello everyone, I have a 2000 kdx220r with stock springs. I am finding that I am bottoming on some bigger jumps or when I land less than perfectly. I weigh about 170lbs with gear & wanted to go to heavier springs to help with this problem. How heavy should I go on the springs, who makes them & where can I get them? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Go over to the Canadian Dave KDX forum & do a search. there's been 100's of Qs & As on this.

You can also go to www.frpoffroad.com and click on the kdxposed section. Jeff tells you what size spring to get for your weight and model year. He also sells the race tech springs. Your front fork springs are only good for about 140 lb. rider. I believe you need to go to .38's, but check out his site and make sure.
