Hi, I am new to this site. I am hoping someone can help me with my daughters Rieju MX2000 dirt bike. For reference it looks the same as a newer MX50. She wrecked it and bent the front fork tube. I got a new one and put it on but I must have not adjusted something correctly. The front tire/fork has too much movement in it. I can move the handle bars back and forth and the fork just twists while the tire stays put. The shocks do not have fluid in them like most. It just has a large spring with a allen screw at the top and bottom. Any help would be appreciated. Mike

Are all the clamp bolts on the yolks tight?

In that case the play can only be in the fork bushes, on the spindle or bearings.

I went back and checked the bolts. I tightened them down real good and it seems to be much better. I `ll take it for a run and see if it stays that way. Thanks for the help. Mike
