I have a 2012 KX450f that had the front forks swapped before I bought it. Needless to say I did not know what to look for at that time. I'd like to buy a set to replace what is supposed to be on the bike. Thanks!

I have a set that is freshly set up and I haven’t used them yet. That being said they won’t be cheap since I have so much into them at this point. Maybe cheaper if I take my new springs and pro circuit national tubes out of them.

I have a set of Race Tech springs for my weight which was how I found out they were air forks. Feel free to email me with more info and price if you'd like. Bradrussell21@gmail.com. Thank you!

Out of curiosity, what do you weigh?

I have a new set of sff spring forks from a 2016 that I’m selling. They were removed from a brand new bike and have 10 minutes on them.
They have DLC lower legs, which came stock on these forks.

I appreciate it but I'd like to stay with the forks that were on the bike.

Being a large guy myself (6'8" @ 235lb) I can tell you that the PSF1 forks you're looking to sell are REALLY good forks once set up correctly. I miss my 2014 KX450F because of the suspension on it. I've gotten my 2015 right and enjoy it but it's not as good as my 2014 was. Plush and had the ability to take some harsh landings if I overjumped things.

I'll be parting out a 09 in the next day or two. The only difference being a lower friction material on the inside of the upper fork tubes that was introduced in 2010. The bike I'm parting out belonged to the local suspension guru at Over The Top Motorsports, his son rode it. I can have the forks sprung and valved for your weight and riding level. The forks have Race Tech Gold Valves in both compression and rebound, SKF seals, SDI spring perches, billet free piston cups, and include the fork guards, axle, triple clamps, and 1 1/8" Mika bar clamps. Currently has .54 springs. Fork uppers were anodized brown magnesium, but it is wearing away. DLC coating on the lower tubes. $600 + shipping.

I have not. I honestly haven’t even ridden the bike yet since I got the others. I should after going to Red Bud this weekend. I wanted to put a little time on them after rebuilding them recently. If you’re interested feel free to PM me or email me. Bradrussell21@gmail.com

I’m deciding this weekend if I’m selling my bikes. If I do I’ll have the 2012 kyb spring forks for sale. Will only have one ride on them since PC set up for 160 A Mx with national tubes.
