kawasaki rising rate conversion
« on: September 30, 2008, 08:26:33 pm »
Just looking at the KX article in the latest VMX and read how it was converted to rising rate
Back in 1982 White Brothers sold a kit to do this consisting of billet parts. They called it the Kawasaki Action Arm
KX 125 & KDX 175 uni-track – part number WB793
KX 250/420 & KDX 250/420 uni-track -  part number  WB79
So that’s just a few trick aftermarket parts for KX/KDX owners to hunt for :)

Wanted - 1978 TS185 frame or frame&motor. Frame # TS1852-24007 up to TS1852-39022

back when KDX175's were new a mate of mine in Tauranga NZ designed and had built a rising rate link for it , seemed to work well . never knew it was available as an aftermarket item
His name was Marty Woodward and he now lives in Hobart I think
