This is why i started the thread man, i really don't know much right now. So id be switching to a 12 for the front and keep a 12 in the rear? I also am not sure if the stem is the same on the 50 as the 70.
 
50 zokes will bolt on to a 70 frame with out much trouble at all, and if your going to put street tires on it the 12/12 setup would be perfect!!!!! 12/12 for a dirt setup works good on a 70 also. I ran mine like that forever, handled great and looked better then 14/12 imo!

I think after christmas is over im going to tear the bike down and source out a marzochi used front, extended rear with a nice shock, do a tak. 88cc big bore with some nice motard wheels. The 12/12 setup does look real nice

bought a marzochi front off a 50 and now im going to set the bike up with 12/12 for now and maybe do a 14 front down the road. Anyone have any advise for a good swinger and shock and length i should run???
 
Call up don at pax racing. 8189682261, If you jump the 70 the frame will chopper out. Pick up a frame off of a ssr150r and they are great. Depending on how much you want to mod it or what you want to do with it, call up terry at firepowerminis, and he his a vendor on here and he can either build up your honda motor, or you can take a yx 150 off of him. Their are a few fork/swingarm options, like a fox float with a stock swinger, or you could buy a sano swingarm or something like it. Don and Terry can tell you what you need, and whats best for what you want to do.... Their both great guys and they will help you with everything you need.

I'm already in route for doing a 106bbr kit on the honda motor, I bought the 50 marzochi front (110 zokes are too big for what i want) now i want to pick up a rear swinger and shock. I dont like the china motors or frames but to fit the 50 zokes i have a spare 50 frame, im going to cut the neck off and weld and gusset it to be stronger. Im not looking to jump the bike, just trail ride and ride on the street.

That "China" frame is about the strongest best one you can get for a 70. The head angle has already been fixed.

I'm not going to get an aftermarket frame, not really something i feel is needed for what im doing. But thank you for the input and ill def keep it in mind incase something fails with the modded 70 frame.
