Hey guys, does anyone have any suggestions for the best place to send my suspension with having the 4CS forks? Ive read where Powerband and MB1 do a lot of these but I’ve never dealt with them. I’m a 200lb rider on a 15 KTM250SX so I’m gonna need springs and everything else. Thanks in advance!
Fast turn around and excellent customer service!
That is Jeremy at www.MXtech.com & Adam Kreft at http://www.kreftmoto.com/
I went with Kreft after much research.
Go take a look at both of their site & call them, see what they have to offer you for your setup.
The Shop
You can get brand new Yamaha KYB SSS Factory fork from 17 Yamaha about 950$(or even less if you know friendly Yamaha-dealer), then you can buy from Technical Touch KYB WORKS KTM specific axle lugs and oil locks for around 400-500$(add 300$ bucks more, if you take new inner tubes as well, 450$ more if you take new innertubes with DLC coating). For 1400-1800$ you have brand new another fork that you can use and put the 4CS aside, then when you will sell the bike, just swap the crappy 4CS back and take the KYB for for new bike again, easy.
Yamaha SSS outer tubes will fit into latest KTM, you will have to use 0.5mm shim. If you do not want to use the shim just buy the Xtrig triple also from Technical Touch.
I have done SSS conversion few years back into one KTM, it worked good but it was no match to previous KYB SSS complete fork which I had in the same bike. I believe that flex characteristics is different KYB vs WP tubes.

A year ago I had the SSS internals installed on my '16 FC450 at PDR.
Soooo NICE!
I just talked to owner Clay Olson that did the mods for me and he says no more need for the SSS
internals.
Race Tech has caught up and works excellent!
EDIT: I had the customized Race Tech Gold Valves installed at the same time as the SSS internals. You would want Gold Valves even if you were upgrading a Yamaha.
I tried to warn you.....
