[QUOTE="julien_d, post: 1359875, member: 98751"] The emulators work really well from what I understand, and should be quite an improvement. There is quite a bit you can do to your existing forks to make them better. The best option though is probably a front end conversion from an MX bike. I've seen yz forks, ktm forks, and of course the most popular kx125/250 forks used. You do need the entire front end usually, and it's most likely not bolt on. You have to use the kdx stem with the mx triples, possible machine work there.. I'm working on a set of 93 yz250 forks right now. 43mm USD's, cartridge type with rebound and compression adjustment. I don't know much about them, but I got the complete front end for free sans caliper, and the 94 kdx caliper I have bolts right on. So my only cost is the rebuilding (seals and bushings) and the time to figure out how to mount them up. What's the story on the 93 USD's? They can be improved probably easier and cheaper than the older conventionals you have. As a base they're on par with the later model KDX conventionals, and there are good upgrades for them as well. I'd probably only consider it if the 93's were somewhere between dirt cheap and free, personally. If you decide to go that route, I'll have some 94 front end parts after I'm done with the yz front end conversion. I should have front the wheel/rotor, and I've got an extra caliper but no MC. Triples, etc. [/QUOTE]
