Old Cone Valve Forks on New KTM

5/16/2020 12:17pm Edited Date/Time 5/18/2020 6:38am
I replace the WP Air Forks on my 350 2019 with old 2014 Cone Valve Forks from my Two Stroke
Set the Race Sag to 105 but i notice a strange feeling on the front Wheel

When i compare the two Forks i see a length difference from 10mm .
I remember some guys here run old CV on theyr KTM‘s .

Run the old cone valves flush in the clamps on 2019. You can go to 106-107 sag. That’s a good starting point for balance.

You can adjust your fork and shock clickers from there.

I have a set of cone valves from 2014 and I run them on the second line and a ride engineering performance link with sag at 103. Handles great and is stable in high speed sections.

The ride link lowers the rear so it makes sense in that scenario where you could be at line 1 or 2.

That’s why I included that in my post. I had the link on the bike before the CV though and it is a worthwhile mod for sure.

Same here, I run my CV flush because I have the 2015 940mm length (ones right before the black ones) on my 2019 Husky 450.
