Hi, thanks for the reply , I had an 84 ktm exc 300 with 42 mm conventional forks and a tls ktm front brake ,but that was 20 odd years ago and I could not be sure if it was factory but I thought it was ....
The Yamaha forks are short but thats good as I am lowering this 81 a little for tight vinduro work and fitting Sachs Hydrocross 10mm shorter ,some of the last twin shock bikes were getting a little too tall ?
I have a couple of 81 gs Maicos and they are too tall as well ....so I have a 79 frame to build a Franken enduro bike ....smaller and better in the corners ...
