I would personally use any of the available forks - Öhlins cartridges, open chamber, closed chamber, 4CS-type closed chamber, air forks (which afaik exist in cone valve and standard shimmed-valve types).
The CC and 4CS need more setup and KTM seemed to have some issues getting the feel right out of the box on these - but I’ve read enough about them that I believe they can be made to work very well, based on both owners reports and about the technology in general.
The closed chamber forks are sealed and pressurized so they are more involved to DIY revalve, but there are aftermarket tools which make it very workable (needles etc.).
But the CC forks are considered less good out of the box, and take time/money to get right - so the used price can and should reflect that.
But if in doubt I’d look out for OC forks.
If you can’t find any then the others will be fine because we will make them fine |
