Damnit.
I ordered.....um, I forgot. It was CR low or mid. I figured I could get risers if they felt to low. I should have them today.

Fork oil :shrug:
The forks probably have the original 1991 oil still in them :ride: . Forks were soft and clunky,like a worn out spring.

I was going to drain them, flush them and put in fresh oil. I think I can do that without fucking it up :brows:

So...the CR low bend didn't feel right. I ordered CR high bends. I'm getting the cheap MSR $20 bars so I can swing it even on a KLR budget. :lol2

Remember, this is my "cheap dirt bike". I'm into it for all of probably $1200 and I've been riding the piss out of it for two years :thumbup:

Cheap fun. :ride:
