After fixing some timing chain problems, took the xr out to rail some wheelies. tb-parts cylinder and piston 120 big bore
How much is the difference in length of the two?
What did you find out on the front brake?
I had To use a brake from a kx .
Very good. Do you think the 21/18 inch wheels would fit ?
Where did you purchase the fork kit from ? My son has a 2021 klx140-rl and is a little more aggressive than what the stock 140 forks can handle. I would love to swap this to his... please update us... nice job
eBay , 2007 kx100 or 85 forks . 2007 and up
Can you send me the link for the fork you have used ?
The 400ex is definitely 1 of the best Hondas of all time.
is there a specific year kx85/100 forks that will only fit the 140? man id love to do this for the asthetic look alone on top of performance gains!
I think it’s 2007 and up
Where's your headlight kit from? Thanks
It’s from Rocky Mountain Mc, handlebar switch also
@@Knoluvv Thank you.
This video is pure gold. 👏🏼Greetings from Colombia 🇨🇴
I "saw a friend" take his bars back off 3 times when he didn't have the cables right. LoL Yeah it was me the first time I put a bike together.
Good job brother
Do you think this would work on a klx230r?
Idk anything about the 230r . So I’m not sure .
What year is your 230
2020&2021
When I did mine. I compared the stock neck bearings to the kx85/100 The klx140 and 125 have the same neck bearings as the 85/100. I just looked looked up the 230. It had different part numbers . So i would say no . But I don’t know the why or the Details .
@zanenemechek2799 thanks dude!
Gotta drop it back👌🏽
Where were the 85 forks purchased from
eBay!
Did you use stock hubs and rotors for the 140 or the kx hub and rotor?
I used the klx wheels completely
Hi does the full size 21inch wheel fit the kx 85 forks which the klx140 also comes out with thanks
How tall does she sit?
Did you use the stock wheel??
Yes I used the stock wheel
What size is your stock wheel? Mine is klx140 g 21”
Beautiful
Thank you
🫡shiii you lit, just use your brakes more & slow it up🤧 🔥
For sure , I got ahold of the rear brake now 🤘
hey can you tell me what the diameter of that kx85 fork is at the top and bottom clamp area wondering if the tubes will fit in standard klx150bf triple clamp?
Did you end up buying a KX100/85 front brake caliper assembly? Looks great, how did it perform?
I did . It was great . The front is soft I have some springs coming
@@Knoluvv I just rebuilt a set for my wife’s 140. Waiting on the triple clamp and I’ll put it together. Replaced the seals and new oil. She’s only 115lbs so the stock springs should be OK. I purchased a complete KX brake as well.
@@MikesProjectsandHobbiesMCAny update? everything went smooth?
@@sdinero45 Oh yeah it’s a pretty easy swap and it works great. Ended up buying aftermarket wheels and hubs for a KX100 as well.
@@MikesProjectsandHobbiesMC I want to try it out. Where did you get parts from? I cant find any source
Hi there great video. I’m looking to do the same thing but to my klx125 d tracker I think is the correct model here in the uk. I want to no if the kx80 or kx100 front forks and rear shock will swap straight over? Any advise much appreciated many thanks 👍🏻
I have read they will swap over . The forks atleast
What year KX85 front end did you use?
2019
@@Knoluvv Thanks!
KEEP GIVING US UPDATES MATE BE NICE TO SEE HOW IT GOT ON
Update out of the blue . The kx85 front is better but still very soft . I found .50 springs for the front . And did a bbr spring in the back. Today I rode a track and was sending jumps and landing butter smooth . Definitely recommend that setup .
just wondering, what year kx100 did the tripple clamp and forks come off of?? thanks!
2012
I wanna change my fork on my 2022 Klx230 any suggestions on forks I’ve been look and find nothing
Great job man!!!! So i have the KLX 140 R and I want the suspension performance works better do u think that can fit on there the setup of Kx 250 on the chassis KLX ?
I use Rocky Mountain mc oem section to compare stock parts . Allot of times they use the same parts for many models . Bring up the two models your working with and see if the parts are the same . That's what I did here .
Quick question I have the same bike 2017 klx 140L.. was wondering where you got the new front suspension
Hello! eBay ! I just kept searching kx100 front end everyday until I found a nice one I wanted . It was 400$
What modification did you do on the stock klx140 brake calipers to fit into the kx85 fork?
The stock klx140 caliper won't fit. I ended up ordering a full kx85 front brake system . Caliper, lines , master cylinder
@@Knoluvv what if I just buy the kx85 brake caliper only, will it work with the klx140 master cylinder and lines? Thanks
@@silentdwak I believe it will.
Thanks for sharing, Buddy. Do you think this setup could work for hard enduro, if I need soft suspension?
hey man, im not sure. i just got the bike and havent ridden it. its still soft but much more stable. if that makes sense.
@@Knoluvv Thanks Buddy
