    CRF150F Front Forks

    by timb052 » Sat Oct 27, 2007 6:32 pm

    I went out to a local track today and was going some jumping and i was bottoming out on the front forks. On my way home i was thinking if there was a way to change the front forks over to 150r forks or any other forks. I want something i can adjust cause I am going to do both trail and track riding. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks

    You can buy CR85 forks off e-Bay, or you can do what Zak did and put heavier oil in your forks.

    forks not shocks and if im correct i think you need triple trees and a whole new front end for the 85 forks

    I bought 2003 CR85R forks for his 2006 CRF150F, we had them mounted in about 2 hours, then we adjusted them for him to make them a little stiffer. But they worked fine, I can't see why they wouldn't.
