Dang! I thought maybe you'd bought them and that'd be one less conversion wannabe I'd have to compete with!

Did you get those triples? They went for about $26 shipped. I almost kept bidding, but held off.

Hmmm.. I'll keep my eye on them. I live less than 20 miles from Dallas.

Here is my list:
2000 KX 125 forks - $150 shipped
Rebuild parts for forks + new oil - $50
Front wheel with disc, tire, axle, and spacers $40
Levers, hoses, and caliper - $40
Top triple clamp - $40
Plastic guards/guides and headlight $80
Bicycle headset spacer $0.50
Lower triple clamp + extra kdx stem - $50
Pressed out/in stem - $20
Oversized handlebar - $70
Perch and Acerbis barkbuster mounts - $40
Grips & tape - $10
Misc nuts and bolts - $10
FRP lighting coil upgrade $100
Things I bought that didn’t fit/work - $60
I have never added this up, but I spent more than I thought I did, comes to over $600. Don't know if I wanted to know that or not. But I got a couple of things that I didn't actually need, but I wanted to do like oversized bars and a new headlight. I bought extra pieces so that I still have my complete original front end too. I don't have everything that I want yet like a computer with mounts and a stearing stablizer.
I took my time and bought it piece by piece over the winter. Still haven't had a chance to ride on it yet though, too much snow.

You can use your KDX wheel in the fork swap. The advantage is, that you can still use your stock odometer. You also don't have to track down multiple parts ( wheel, axle, spacers )from different sources. You use your modified KDX axle and some modified bushings in the bottom of the fork leg. There was a guy on one of the KDX websites who used to make the bushings and axle. I am not a machinist but I was able to machine (modifiy) the axle, and create the bushings and spacers out of some brass plumbing parts. The whole setup has been on my bike for 2 years. After more than a dozen hare scramble races I don't even think about it. I also pressed the steering stem out of the KDX triple with my hydraulic log splitter. It took longer to get the log splitter started than to press it out. If you are resourceful you can do it.

I have always been creative when needing tools and making something work but a LOG SPLITTER 
What a great idea !
