Crf150f suspension upgrades?

[McBiggity]

Will be quite some time before I can afford a newer dirty toy but we do have a crf150f in the garage. Super fun bike but the suspension wasn't made for my 185lb fat ass. Anyone know of some options out there?

You can always respring it, toss emulators in the forks if you want to go all out.

Send it to Factory Connection or GMD.

here's the answer your looking for - CR85R forks & triples (resprung if you must). I will check with my buddy who has fully decked his out, but I believe the rear shock is also CR85 (plus sprung).

[McBiggity]

Yeah, let me know what is involved in that.

[Kitt]

I think the forks bit is same as the ttr 125. CR85R triples and forks... I'll find out about the wheel/axle/spacers. The TTR requires triples, forks, axle.

[McBiggity]

Found some info on-line. Looks like it may be a little more than I want to spend for the cr85 front end set up.

[Kitt]

ebay should net you the front end for $150 or so

Got in touch with my buddy, it turns out he's selling his:

man, that's exactly the bike my wife wants... long shot but your buddy wouldn't want to trade for a Pitster Pro w/motor and suspension mods, would he?

doubt it... call him?


MCBig - I may have a line on forks/triples/shock for $200. seems reasonable, let me know.

[McBiggity]

Sounds very reasonable. Let me know if you can get them
