sry kinda new to the whole minis. i need new forks and was wondering which ones to get but dnt want to spend a arm and a leg bout want something decent. also was wanting to use my stock frame and wheel and brake system. will bbr sp5 work? 50 caliber? i do alot of trail riding.
stay away from 50 cal.......SP-5s are great forks...work well with a +2 swinger too......XR/CRF70 forks and swinger works with a little bit of modding and ya can do it very affordably......
well not much hacking involved really...SP-5s were designed after CRF70 forks....the SP-5 fork kit works with stock wheels and brake..and frame....if you use the tock swinger you will have to move the fork legs up into the top tripple clamp quite abit to get the bike to sit level
Sp5s work alright but do yourself a favor, before you run them install oem honda 70 fork seals and fresh 20wt fork oil. the stock seals have a tendency to blow out.
Sp-5's are great, If you go with crf70 forks id suggest getting a bbr top clamp and damnpning rods, but if your going to do that you might as well get sp-5's lol.
I don't have SP5's but I have CRF70 forks with HD springs (practically the same internally as SP5s), +2 swingarm, and iShock. There's pics of my bike in my profile
