    Im guessing you want the forks...Right? Try ebay. There used to be a company named... I think but not 100% it was like Reger Enginering. They had a kit for what you wanna do for like $1500. Good luck finding what you need...

    O I see, But just make sure the cr85 front wheel is the same size as the 150. I no that was an issue for me when i was looking at doing that converion, and then i realized it was a huge waste of money

    A friend of mine has been looking at buying an entire cr85 off of ebay since you can get them for around 1500. If you just use the front end and part out the rest you will come close to breaking even. Those cr85 parts go for alot of money on there.

    I have never paid more than MSRP thru the dealer as long as the dealer has a wroking relaionship (ie an account) with the manufacturer. I will have to find out about that. If not maybe the dealer will start an account with this manufacturer at my request. Then the dealer gets the cheaper "dealer price" and I pay the dealer the higher MSRP. That's how the dealer would get their cut. I get to purhase it, nothing out of pocket, at a godawful finance rate and ride off nto the sunset leaving any unpaid balance to my estate if not paid off before my demise. Clever eh? Kids this is not sound financial advise but when you get to my age what the hey!

    I got mine off of ebay w/triple clamps for $285, you need to have the triple clamps modified and you will need to have a CR85 front fender, number plate, axle, fork guards. It is best to use the CRF caliper because it is a dual piston and the CR85 is a single piston, to do that you have to get the adapter bracket and wheel spacers from Reger Eng.

    After respring and rear shock I spent about $1100 to make it work, It is really worth it. I can hit jumps hard and stay in shape in the whoops, It handles and turns awesome.
