I'm pretty sure the clamps will work but you will need to swap the steering stems and use your bearings or get new ones. I'm pretty sure the offset is a little different. Or a good machine shop could bore your clamps to fit the bigger forks.

I have a pair of forks from a '02 YZ125, the same 46mm KYB. They need oil seals. $100 plus shipping or I can do the seals/bushings/oil/bump stops for $150 more. Springs are stock. Triple clamps included.

thanks for the offer! but i think i've actually found another set locally off an 03 yz250 which if I've done my research correctly, should fit right up, and has stiffer springs which isn't a bad thing since i'm definitely on the heavy side for a yz125 anyways.
