Thanks a lot. I have a similar fork coming my way now. I also found an unused one on ebay. However, I presume I will send them by the local suspension guru while I'm at it. I plan to use my oem wheels if its not too much truble, perhaps by cutting a suitable, smaller brake disk or fabricating a suitable caliper bracket.
Btw, the brake disk I use now is also a home brew. Sent from my OMNIA7 using Board Express

So, I have a couple months of rides with the KYB conversion.
About 2 rides ago I installed some billet free pistons in the forks. Saw a lot of broken OEM free pistons on several forums. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1tu98GQD3Y Flushed the fluid and bled the cartridges. I put 350cc of 5W fluid in the outer forks. That was too much. The initial fork travel was very plush, but harsh on the mid stroke. There were a lot of sharp spikes to my wrists. I called up SMART Performance and ordered their SPI 3 special fork fluid. http://smartperformanceinc.com/215VM2K5.html I added 300cc of the SPI 3 fluid to outer fork per their recommendation. The forks are very plush now. Even with the stock YZ125 fork valving/spring, the forks work really well. I don't think I have ever had this much confidence to go fast on the bike as I do now. We have a loop that we ride on, my average speed on the loop has been a steady 19mph. Today I hit 21.9mph. ![]() Helmet cam to come. ![]() |
