KDXRIDER.NET

I got the calipers out and made a few measurements last night:

KX upper triple hole ID= 25.03mm
KX upper triple thickness=20.27mm
KX stem OD at upper triple=24.95mm
KDX upper triple hole ID=23.54mm
KDX upper triple thickness=24.5mm
KDX stem OD at upper triple=23.42mm

KDX stem at lower triple= 30.15mm
KX stem at lower triple= 30.15mm
KDX lower triple hole= 30.13mm
KX lower triple hole= 30.13mm

Took 10 tons to press out the KDX stem!

Thanks for your data points.

Contemplating my own conversion since my KDX is set up for a 155 pound rider and I have at least 40+ on that, not including gear.

All I can say is do it! I can't believe I waited so long!

My 2001 KX125 front end with stock springs and valving feels great, (200-205 riding weight).

Rick
Do you know what spring weight the rear shock has? You said your kdx was setup for 155lbs. And are you going to replace it with 1 for your weight I might be interested in the lighter 1 or possibly a swap for a stock 1 from my 06 200.

I don't know yet. I think it's the stock spring (what I'm told is for 180 pounders).

I'll e-mail QuailChaser to find out.
