I have a pair I need to sell. Fredette told me in an e-mail a couple months ago that he isn't really in the market for forks right now, or something to that effect. I have been keeping an eye on them on Ebay and a lot of times they don't get a single bid. It's a buyer's market for 95-06 KDX parts (on some parts anyway). Some do go for a decent price - like rear wheels.

Understood. 325 were for the forks only. Sold them to a nice guy in Australia who saw my ad on the other forum. I guess I was lucky. If they are "like new", I would ask $250 today. I read somewhere on this forum that FRP doesn't buy them anymore...

When the season hits...they will be in demand and Fredette's stock will run low. He will buy them again...

What in the world does Fredette do with them?

Rebuild them and wait....

Wait for what? The most mundane answer I can think of is to wait for people's forks to break so he can sell them an affordable, rebuilt replacement pair.

My mind does wonder though. Maybe he is waiting for something else that involves government conspiricies, trade embargos, secret x-files or something else more spectacular.

That's exactly it.
