Ohlins front forks on 2001 KTM 400 EXC

[Wyvern77]

Hi guys, anyone of you guy tried gettin an Ohlins front fork on it? The stock fork is 43 mm & the Ohlins front fork is 46 mm. Is there any market triple clamp with the size 46 mm? I thinking of converting to Supermotard. Instead of using the spoke rims, i am thinking of getting an OZ racing rims, any suggestions?

I think a bigger issu is the size of the upper stantion tubes! If you are looking at buying the Ohlins forks, perhaps it would be best to buy the triple clamps as well. Usually the forks are sold with the clamps. I'm not sure what issues you will have with the wheel or brakes fitting the ohlins fork unless it was specifically designed for a KTM. Why not have a professional tuner lower your bike and set it up for Super Motard riding? Done correctly, it should cost a lot less than the Ohlins forks and propably work much better as well.
