Default Wanted USD forks & triple clamps

I'm looking to convert my 2000 EC250 from conventional forks to USD. I would need a nice set of forks, triple clamps, etc?. Let me know what you have (year & type) Thanks in advance! You can PM or email me thru the site.

Just do the Yamaha/KYB SSS fork swap.

Because that is the easiest fastest and most effective setup your going to be able to get without having to turn the process into a gong show. Availability is also a consideration and these will be relatively easy to source

Before I started this wanted post I compared some part #'s. The pre 04 WP fork bikes use the same part number hub and brake as my conventional fork. This is why I thought I'd go this way. Any additional info would be great! Thanks

If your on a budget then that may be the way to go, depends on what you expect. They are the easiest USD fork to service, but from my experience the low end of the performance spectrum. Those forks are more rare than the Zoke 45s and certainly the KYBs. For a KYB setup you just get an entire front end from a blown up YZ250F and bolt it on, very few mods needed. You then have a state of the art CC fork, and proper front end geometry is retained. Its been done with excellent results.

What years of YZ250f do you look for? What mods? Revalve? Correction on my last post. The hubs share the same part number between conventional and WP. Not axle.

I have a Zocke 48mm without triple clamps for sale, but shipping to US will be a bit expensive.
