Hi There
My son age 12 has just got a KDX200 and would like feed back on what lower link to put in the bike, he is tall for his age so will need it only for a year or 2 and is a good rider and stand-ups 90% of the time only need the bike lowered a little to help him kick it easier on hills etc.
I understand there is 3 different lengths of link and any experience in what one is best and how much to change the front forks in the tripple clamps will be helpful.

You Sir, are so in luck! I am in the South Island and have both the Kouba 2 and Kouba 3 lowering links for a KDX which are about to be for sale!

From memory l brought the front forks through about 20 mm. I had to crank up the rear preload to compensate for the changed geometry. They work well.

I had to make some because I couldn't find any. That being said I have the drawings for anyone that has the skills to make them. So if the size doesn't turn out right let me know and I can make custom/give you drawing for new links.
