Back ground. I purchased an 07 WR 250 this summer. The Previous owner said he had the front forks worked over at a local shop. I found them to be ok in the whoops but really harsh in the small stuff. Was not fun to ride. Or riding is mostly desert with rocks of course. I contacted Les at LTR racing after reading multiple positive reviews. I sent him a picture of the internals. He replied that there were parts that were not stock or had been modified. He commented nice science project and that to send them in and he would see what he could do. Cost would be time and materials because he didn't know what he was getting into. He called me and said they made replacement stems for whatever reason and that they did not allow enough clearance for the shims to flex correctly. He fixed that and provided a shim stack for my type of riding. Fork repair, revalve, seals and parts came to $258.00. This seams very reasonable to me since he had to diagnose what had been done and with his experience knew what to fix in the modification to make everything work correctly again. The bike is completely different and handles great. A huge difference from what it was before. Goes thru the small stuff great and handle the whoops fine. I know there are other company's to choose from just wanted to share my experience with LTR.
We used LTR for my 2008 TXC450, his same setup is still going strong with the new owner, It was raced everywhere from tight HS/Enduros, to Nat H&H to Nat HS. smooth and silky and very controlled but the big plus for this old guy...low fatigue with his set up.
