Id like to put some inverted forks on my 250R/540R build. What inverts do people use and what needs to be done? I will not be running front brakes and know Ill have to have triples made. Does the axle screw right in?

Next is What do you trike nuts run for radiators? Id like some nice new over sized ones, but wouldnt mind finding some that work from another bike.


Is there any after market brake pedals out there? I have searched so please dont ask me to just search.


Thanks all!!

Thanks for posting Kasey, Did you have to make a custom axle, or did it thread right in? This is a major concern of mine. I like to know where I stand befor I make a buy.

NOTHING on the frontend is a bolt on operation,, every step is custon built the spacers axle disc adapter the triple clamps... there is no such thing as a bolt on frontend,,

yea, I know everything else is a struggle, Im just hoping the axle hole on the forks is the same or smaller on the KX forks so i can re thread or bore it. Believe it or not I have the rest worked out. I even have a custom hub in the works that allows me to run many common 10 inch front wheels that is in a different direction then the others I have seen. Thanks again!!
