Same basic fork. 41mm Kayaba. Magazine tests of the time said the RMX had softer springs (and valving?) than the RM.
The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.

thanks mate , mainly looking at the rmx forks as my rm uppers are badly corroded will transfer all the internals from the rm forks to the rmx upper legs
