Fork bushes

@oldman
Nice findings!

Could you also measure the other bushing for me? Just in case

[oldman]

The other bushes are readily available via eBay, Fowler's, csmnl, etc

[Nottsbiker]

Sounds reasonable - bet I wont find any for the tdr that easily if I need them!

[oldman]

If you can get them out and measure them give brooks suspension a call or check their website, list range of bushes by size. I called them and they were very helpful

[oldman]

Finally took out the bike with the new bushes fitted, all good now, no knocking on compression stroke, well worth doing even if it was a faff getting the bushes. Still no reply from Yamaha though.

Poor show from Yamaha really.

Do I chase them though, would like info re key for dtmx helmet lock. Sold the dt250mx last week and have another bike up for sale, looking at buying 250 4t dual sport, was thinking of klx250 maybe? No longer sold here but was even thinking of buying new! Here's a pic of the Meon Valley last night, followed an e type Jag down the A272 from Petersfield to Loomies, smoked as much as my bike!

Forget the picture, cant get it uploaded, but think bike in middle of countryside with no one around

@oldman KLX meant to be quite flat power wise if thats an issue

Personally I'd get a KDX200 if it had to be Kawasaki

@oldman Yeah sorry, I had to disable photo uploads. I didn't realise the limit for uploads was up to 20MB.

I CANNOT HOST THAT. I don't have a business line and it would utterly murder my internet connection.

Just upload to imgur and copy the links across.

It's very simple, just get Imgur on your mobile, upload to that using your mobile, then once that's done, you click on the image you're intereted in, and click on share. It will produce a URL that you link in here.

@Nottsbiker id like a kdx 200 or 220 i think they're a perfect balance between comfort and peformance

Shame about 250mx, wouldn’t mind one of those in the future. Saw one for the first time literally outside my house not to long whilst I was rebuilding my RM80, guy said he collected Yamahas and was visiting his family. Beautiful bikes, nicely sized and proper retro vibes

Yes thats why I bought my DT200WR

Had one years ago regretted selling it ever since so had to get another one.
