'21 forks shouldn't be THAT bad, especially for tight stuff, unless you're really fast or really big- right springs and a revalve would be way less than $1800, and I reckon they would be better than standard AER. I've ridden '21 FE501 and the forks feel pretty good, rode it in tight snotty stuff. Big thing for ALL forks is correct springs- KTM group WP springs are ALWAYS too soft. I weigh 70kg, bikes are suposedly set for 80kg, I always go up 1 step on springs. Makes big difference in feel, even in slow going.There never used off of a 22 300TC going for $1800.00 US shipped at best I’m intermediate rider ? Would be going on a 21 300TE mostly single track riding. Are they that bad
