I am curious if these forks are interchangable, as they originally both have Showa TAC forks. A guy near to me is selling full Ohlins he has on 2017 KXF and I would like to know if I could fit them on my Suzuki, if not what do I have to change? Front axle and wheel?
Thanks for the help

RMZ Clamping diameter: 55 upper, 59 lower
KXF offset: 23mm
RMZ offset: 21,5mm
There is more than one way around it, if the price is right it might be worth the hassle.
You could bore out the top triple clamp and fit the forks, or have the steering stem from KXF triples pressed out and RMZ stem pressed in.
As far as lugs compatibility, Axle and brake caliper from RMZ should be a direct fit, but I wouldn't swear by it if my life depended on it. It's been some time since I compared KXF and RMZ forks.
Take a measuring caliper, meet the guy and take measurements. Shouldn't be too hard.
Btw. Shock off a KXF can be easily made to work on RMZ too, it needs to be shortened a little, which can be done by any tuner.
