I got a quick question for you all. How quickly do bushings wear under normal conditions. The ones that came on the forks look almost brand new. I have new bushings but if the bushings wear slow i will wait untill next winter to put them on.

Ryan??????? :roll:

99-01 have MID VALVES & BLADDER. Depending on a 125 or 250, stock spring would be .41 & .43
My mid valve was removed for woods application. Since yours were worked on that might be the case also.

Also, IdahoCharlie said "Suggestion/Question/Logic - Why not just reassmble - install the .36 springs and new oil and give us some feedback"

Thats a good idea Ryan, thats what I mean by seeing how it works for you instead of thinking how it should work for you..

I would but the forks i got need seals. I got some racetech seals. Ski said he put some race-tech seals on his bike but they take about 100 miles to break in good. I really dont have the time to go around for 100 miles 3 week from now.

alright after 2 people with 99 kx's and two websites (pivotworks, and techcare) I found that the 99 forks were the same as the 00-01 except for the fact that they dont come with bladders.
