    Re: 18' rear wheel

    Hi, I am looking at replacing my AT front end with a front end from a 2005 YZ250F. Did you shorten the WR Forks, or just put them on straight? also did you change the springs?

    What did you do with the speedo?

    Thanks, hopefully I can get this project completed. Just alot of technical issues to investigate before I start.

    Also If i am reading correctly, you used WR forks with CRF clamps. Is this correct?

    Re: 18' rear wheel

    Hi,thanks Paul.

    Yup,I fitted the WR4 top clamp,stem,and lower crf clamp(a mistake).
    reason,actually wanted to put both the crf top n bottom clamp together with the stem becoz the conditions of the CRF clamp is very new,and yes,becoz of theHonda logo on the top clamp.(very lame,i noe)
    ok,the outcome,I still do have a loose stem feeling,not good at the meantime,a slight knocking feeling upon heavy impact on potholes.
    As of today,I have successfully won the bid on a complete WR400 aftermarket triple clamp together with the stem.Gonna rework on it when it arrives.

    As for the WR400 fork on the AT,i did nothing much to it,and tested on a short offroad session,the speedo,I use the WR400 speedo along side with the wheel.IMO,it works brilliant.Height and ground clearance are great improvement,braking power,of coz,a little weak,but good enuff for offroad,not sure how bout for high speed highway riding.

    Till then..

    Ok,the 18' conversion will start somewher around next week or so.when the aftermarket triple clamp arrive.
