Make your own. My brother did that on his 06 and a friend and knowledgeable mechanic did them on his KDX which has similar link set up.
Here's how it's done:
Hope that helps a bit
Here's how it's done:
- get the bike stable, held by tie downs on a lift, on a trailer, wherever - or a friend who is standing around uselessly
- use an adjustable jack, hydraulic or screw jack, under the chassis to lift the bike until the rear tire is not supporting any weight.
- unbolt and take off the links.
- let the jack down until you lower it where you want it, an inch or two,
- measure the distance between the mount holes.
- Get some steel flat stock of reasonable thickness, measure the stock ones, I have no idea how thick they are,
- lay out the link on the flat stock and drill the two holes of appropriate size and distance apart.
- Round the ends to look pretty.
- Paint the links
- Install the links,
Hope that helps a bit
I have a nice set that were just removed from a 2007 KLX 250s. They look like the PSR links here, but don't have the PSR name stamped in them.
The stock height bars I just installed came from a 2015 model, so these should fit yours.
$50 plus shipping

Before you lower it, make sure you have your sag set correctly. When I got my bike I added lowering links, but have since gone back to stock after setting 100mm of sag. And I have a 29 inch inner leg. You may not need to lower it.
