Yes, very good forks IMO. I have the same forks on my old KDX and love them.

I have a 2008 YZ250 KYB fork in my 2011 Gasser and I love the fork.

Default Showa CC forks are great for Off Road

I like the showa CC forks too for single track riding. See link below to the thread I used to revalve mine for off road.

Had a set on my 07 RM250 brilliant forks with the heavier springs Suzuki ran in them for 07 were perfect for my 90kilo riding weight , would soak up even the biggest high speed hits , unlike the soft 07 yamaha WR450 stock KYB's or the many KTM WP forks I've had over the years ....

Just so plush while being able to soak big hits and jumps at the motocross track

there is a pretty detailed thread on here where they were fitted to a gasser. Pretty detailed build and shimming if i remember correctly.
Not as straightforward as the kyb but similar results
