New to the group and excited to learn more! I recently bought a 2020 KLX250 and it has Moose lowering links installed. I'm a taller guy and would like to get it back to stock height. Does anyone have a set of stock height rear suspension links that they would be willing to sell or possibly trade for my lowering links? Or know of a place (other than kawi dealer) to buy a stock-length set?

I believe these are what's on it now.

I assume it would be an easy swap out - couple of bolts it looks like.

Thanks for any advice!

 

Yes, you could post in the 300 section too. The links should be pretty much the same and new 300 riders may be looking for the lowering links. You could also post in the ADVrider forum as well.

The links might help when you're standing over the bike and when putting a foot down when riding, but it won't do anything for the rider ergonomics. I would recommend you check into either bar risers or higher bars, ATV type are usually a bit higher than the highest MX bars to open up the seating. Some taller riders will also have the seat reupholstered adding a couple inches to the seat foam. I always remember the pictures of Rik Smits, the retired 7'3" NBA center, on his vintage bikes with seriously thicker seats.

I'd definitely say get the original length dog bones, you could even make them out of flat stock steel, seen that done a number of times. Get close to the right thickness of metal to do the job, hack saw, drill press, a bit of grinder or file work can make a set of links. Pretty sure my brother is still running a set of links he made on his KLX, but to lower it.
