I just picked up this KX250 Friday and am going to restore it. Looking through some old threads I saw it sat in a shop for a long time on display before it went up for sale a couple years ago and then traded hands a few times. Good news is everything is tight and not beat to death and ragged out. Even all the bolts still match.

What do you guys know about these ohlins?

I think I have a set up manual for those forks somewhere. I’ll look for it this week.

My buddy purchased this sweet Fred Andrews KX 250 before me back in the day.. The Ohlin front and rear shock were so money. Congratulations on the build

So do you still have that bike? I'm excited to try it out. Im sure it will be 10x better than my bone stock 2003 kx250. That was not a woods oriented bike at all.

I missed out buying this bike a couple years ago by a few days. I wish I would have gotten it. I raced one very similar to it back then.
