Default Front forks

Anybody in the UK got a clean pair for sale to fit my 2009 klx250s?
Mine have aluminium cancer and may well need replacing.
Thanks

May have found a 2014 D Tracker front end. Does anyone know if this is the same and/or will slot straight into my 2009 klx? Thanks once again.

Same part number from what i can tell, whether they are identical is another matter but i think you will be fine.

Thats how it starts.

Maybe spray some acid neutralizing wash or similar in case it gets worse.

If the surface is peeling it will get worse with time.

I'm having the same issue right now and I've been searching high and low for a while for a set of forks or even a front right leg but I'm not having any luck atm.
Have you had any success in fitting D tracker forks? did you get D Tracker 250 forks as there is also a 125 version?

I barely ride these days with the serious condition of the fork and DO NOT want an accident.


Any info will be appreciated.

My pal had a look at mine and said it's only surface rust so haven't done anything about it.
Didn't follow up the d tracker forks.
