The cycle in question: 2003 KDX 200. FMF Pipe/silencer....open airbox lid. The rest is stock.
Pipe in w/your pros and cons. I grabbed a KX 125 front end (1995, 43MM USD forks, rim, etc.) for a rediculously cheap price. I'm basically starting at about the $70 figure. The forks need new seals plus I found some .41KG/mm fork springs that will go in w/the new seals. Everything else is very serviceable.
Here's the point of the Poll. To proceed w/the USD fork refit with 1995 USD rebuilts.... or modify the existing KDX forks...ala project JustKDX?
Riding style: I don't MX this bike at all. Just good moderate desert enduro. However I ride hard enough to not like the mushy front end (compression set 2 clicks off of max).
Thanks for the wisdom...
