[@robertwoods2505]

Great how-to brother. Take good care of yourself and that beautiful family! Cheers to all.

[@mxrevival]

Thanks for watching Robert!

[@1176hambone]

Excellent real-time commentary!

[@mxrevival]

Thanks Homie!

[@rclmxshift]

Lifelong Honda owner, but recently purchased a 2022 KTM 350 SX-f. Thank you for doing this video. You took the fear out of rebuilding these forks for me, when the time comes.

[@mxrevival]

Welcome to the dark side! Hey, thank you for watching. I'm glad the video will be helpful for you. If you get to a point where you are ready to respring the shock for your weight (assuming it hasn't been done or you are not already in the stock springs target weight) feel free to reach out and I will get you dialed in! Same goes for the tools in today's video, if you don't feel like digging around for each of them, just blast me an email anytime and I will make sure you get what you need. Thanks again for watching! -Charles // mXrevival

[@rogermelling8941]

I have a 22 gas gas mc 250f and although the valving needs a minor change I can tell that these for will be very good ..Best air forks I've used 🤘

[@mxrevival]

Congrats! I'd love to body style on the gas gas. The forks are awesome!

[@human1513]

Appreciate the great video.

[@rickybobby8417]

Great video Charles, just picked up SKF seals for the KX's and my ZX6R, they are definitely worth the $. Where our track is there are tiny sharp rocks which is just brutal on seals, also picked up a pair of shock sox to try to prolong their life. Brake clean works great for this job, be careful not to get it on any O rings, plastics or the seals, it can pull the natural oil from them causing cracks/premature failure.

[@mxrevival]

Very true about the rubber! Thanks for watching Ricky! Those shock socks, work killer as long as he flipped them, upside down and wash the insides out once in a while! Those suckers definitely pack in the debris.

[@anthonycavalliotis8736]

Excellent Video.

[@mxrevival]

Thank you very much for watching!

[@westmetal17]

Great video. Subbed. Got any vids for the ktm rear shock same year ish?

[@user-sz2gc3wm5p]

Спасибо за видео!

[@adamh3470]

I hope that RM behind you is yours. I would love to see you restore that after the Cr500. Keep up the great work.

[@mxrevival]

Dude I'm in love! It is mine, and I have the matching little brother RM 125. I'm literally driving to the track with the RM250 in the back of the van right now. Should be next week's video! Never ridden it before...

[@adamh3470]

Not sure if you are friends but throwback mxguy did a restoration on a 1990 rm250. The bike looks amazing have a look on vital mx.

[@elid377]

Great video bro. Hey what are those 2 holes on the buttom of that orange bullet cap? what is the purpose of those?

[@kevinmarshall8035]

You can also use one half of the seal driver to push the circlip into its groove.

[@mxrevival]

Great tip, I'll give that a try. Probably works even better 🤘

[@jesse469]

Mega video

[@brettlaage9687]

I had a way easier time rebuilding forks than the shock on my CR125R. The rebound adjuster was a little tricky to get threaded on. With the shock… well, I was covered in oil and had trouble bleeding the air out. I had many choice words for it haha. Found out I had bad compression adjuster o-rings. They don’t come in the rebuild kit either.

[@notgayming5190]

I cant find which seal is the new quad seal for the newer air fork cartridge. The only seal i can find is this one (X-ring 26,57x3,53 FKM80) and its the same for both 2017 and 2018. Any idea which seal it is that your talking about in this video at 35:15. I have the 2017 version of this fork and im having the cold weather failure. Im trying to find what seal they changed and if it will fit into this older fork. Any info would help. Thanks!

[@Dirt_Bike_Dave]

🤣🤣" is this turning you guys on " .....can't beat shop humor.

[@mxrevival]

Had to stop and "take care of it" real quick. Being covered in fork oil really has its perks 💦

[@Dirt_Bike_Dave]

@@mxrevival , 🤣🤣 stop your killing me Bro.

[@airtimeal8744]

Nice work Charles, much appreciated info there. I,m considering the 23 ktm 350sxf and would it be my first WP suspension and machine with air forks. Reviews are looking promising with the current technology. Currently i,m at 195 lbs so both ends may need a little attention with spring rates and valving for my heavy arse. Keep er pinned as always....

[@mxrevival]

Oh you'll love the 350. One of the best bikes I've owned & they've only gotten better. 🔥 Here's a video for you right before or after your break-in ride: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jn2bc6Vthd-kq6c One great thing about re-springing the new KTMs, is that you only need to buy the rear spring!! I was about the same weight and never even sent the fork/ shock out for a re-valve. I just sprung the rear with one of our WP color matched white shock springs & that was IT! So good! Reach out anytime if you need a rear spring too. Thanks for watching, Al! -Charles // mXrevival

[@tylerjamesgillismusic4782]

Hey C! Love the vid very informative and helpful seeing that the new husky has these forks . Question ,my buddy who does suspension out here in buffalo offered me a gold valve set up for my 22 TC 125 when I decide to do fork seals for the first time. What are your thoughts in this?

[@mxrevival]

Thanks Ty! Gold vales have a great reputation. I have not used them personally but they have been around forever. Race Tech is a highly reputable company & have great products. I'd go for it. I just don't know if it's best suited for your stock shim stack or could be better with a revised stack since you're already in there taking that portion apart. It'd be a good question to ask.

[@tylerjamesgillismusic4782]

@@mxrevival Awesome I’ll actually email Race tech and see what they suggest. Haha keep it Two smoken!

[@KsaKsa-zv8zd]

Nice vid. Is it necessary to let the air out of the cartrige when only changing oil and seals? I’ve seen others said it should be done, but i’m not so sure u did. Thanks

[@mxrevival]

No, you totally don’t have to let the air out if you don’t want to. Thank you for watching, and for the compliment 💪

[@RiverMotos]

Você não efetuou a limpeza do cartucho ??? Essa condição que fez o serviço e de uma suspensão nova sem uso !!!

[@mayelo38]

How much oil need the air fork

[@throttlebuff]

My dampening rod isn't fully extending. When i was pumping it before adding oil to drain it felt extremly sticky mid stroke. Like i had to phsh against the floor. Afyer pumling a bit it was moving but still very sticky. Tbe reason i took them apart was i thought ghe aer was sticking. However maybe this is the problem. How do you check the seal on pushrod in dampening fork? Maybe i didn't bleed it enough so it isn't extending but how about binding. Any ideas?

[@mxrevival]

I'll throw out a few suggestions though it would be difficult for me to tell without having the fork leg of course.. if it's the damping side, it may not be bled properly. Easy enough to fix of course. If it's the air leg, you may have a bad quad ring seal. If it isn't either of those two issues, you could also have damage inside the unit causing the drag at mid stroke. Thankfully all of these would be easily remedied by sending your fork leg or legs into your favorite suspension tuner. Thanks for watching!

[@mxrevival]

JD!

[@petermoygannon698]

Dimensions of orange fork travel O rings . ???

[@mxrevival]

Probably 48 mm just like the lower stanchion, but if you need one- you can probably order one off any OEM parts microfiche. Just use the newest KTM you’re making model to pull it up

[@Albakir28]

How many millimeters of oil do you need?

[@Albakir28]

For ktm suspension

[@petermoygannon698]

And i keep seeing 180ml minimum 240ml maximum oil 240ml if your really heavy . You put 280ml ???

[@mxrevival]

In the KTM manual, it’s pretty specific to bike size like 125, 250, 350, 450, etc. Current model RMZ is running around 330…

[@border411]

Seriously.... They are making the blue towel rolls so much smaller it looks like (2) of the new rolls is equivalent to one of the old! They aren't fooling anyone!

[@jonellwanger7258]

And I bet they are $3 more/roll as well!
