I have a 14 with air and an 06 roller. I'll swap those out and see how I like the springs. I don't care for the air.

The 09-12 fork bolts right on and is the same basic fork as the Yamaha forks everyone raves about. Yamaha has their own valving, but nothing a tuner can’t do to that fork. They are both KYB AOSS forks.

I don’t believe so. I’m pretty sure that era 250 had SFF Showas. I had 09, 11, and 13 450s-the 09 and 11 spring forks were basically identical as I recall.

2006 - 2012 stock KX450F 48mm KYB spring forks will bolt right up. I believe 2007+ had DLC lower tubes, 06' only was chrome. Minor internal updates through the years, but infinitely better than dealing with PSF1 or TAC air forks in your intended application. Cheers

1/20/2025 8:09am Hey All, Hoping I can get some help. I have a 14’ KX450 that is used as a snowbike (timbersled kit) and the stock forks (rebuilt 1 ride ago by local shop when I bought the bike) lost nearly all their air after a 2 hour ride. I think snow/ice got past the seals and leaked air From my research...
