Default '79 KLX 250/Keepin' it alive

I recently found this forum and was in hopes that somewhere within would
be a group interested in keeping these things alive. Does it exist? The Classics
section seems to be devoted to road stuff only.

Welcome to KF. I am not sure on your question, but there are some experts around here that will know.

I'm a classic, and they let me hang around here, so I would say there is hope for your machine. Oh and welcome to the forums.

Default Rear Shocks

Thanks Guys, my initial question was simply if there was a specific
area for old bikes, so that I could reduce the bandwidth and not get
caught up in all the road and new bike stuff. At this point in time, since
she runs good(15 years in a shed and only 1500 miles on the clock), the
only real problem is leaking rear shocks for the '79. Where can they be found?
What parts cross over from other models? ebay seems to cough up some NOS
stuff occasionally, but no shocks.
