Kayaba Fork Rebuild/revalve

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)


Posted by: T-Train---------------------

I recently purchased a complete 1999 KX 250 front end to put on my 2000 KDX 200. I've decided that the first step in my conversion would be to rebuild the forks. I've been doing a lot of research on this site and have come to the conclusion that for the type of riding I will be doing I'm going to need to have these forks revalved. I would like to rebuild the forks myself which I feel I can do no problem. However, I do not want to tackle the revalving part of the rebuild nor do I want to ask the suspension experts on this site or any other for free valving recommendations. My question is simple. Can I send out just the Base & Mid-Valves to a service shop like MX-TECH, RACE TECH, etc. to have them revalved vs. sending the whole fork to them? Thanks!

Those forks could use the midvalve o-ring to spring conversion, besides any base valve modifications. Just call up whoever you want to service them and ask them.
