    bw80 to atc70 conversion.

    i finally had a little time to convert this bw 80 front suspension to fit a atc70,, i added a 70 tire so it wouldn't be so tall and still look more oem,,, i just won another bw front off ebay without a tire so i think i will do one with the 10" original tire too,, oh yeah i built some 2.5" bar risers for it too,,,

    THE STEERING STEMS ARE TOTALLY DIFFERENT SIZE AND LENGTH. i had to remove the old stem and weld the 70 stem in the lower triple clamp. the front hub is atc and the sleeves had to be cut down ,, i don't think a stock tire will fit inbetween the forks , the tire i have is a little narrower than stock,, i am going to builkd a complete full suspension rolling chassis that will be for sale when its done..

    I've been contemplating this same swap... i plan to cut the head tube out of the bw frame and put it on the 70 chasis, i figure its got to get stretched a few inches anyway... i'll be keeping up on this one...

    scotty
    current line up:
    86 KXT250 Tecate
    87 KXT250 Tecate
    86 ATC350X
    87 ATC200X
    85 YTM200
    and about a dozen more in parts...

    the problem with swapping the head tube,, its alot shorter than an ATC .. then the gastank comes into play for top and bottom clearance . thats why A+ stayed with an atc neck to avoid that problem,, now if you strech the frame out you might be able to get away with it,

    since there is a little interest i will profile this build up. i picked up a beater pitbike, i am going to use the frame for this one, ita a typical chinese pitbike, nothing special, this won't be mine . it probably will end up in the kids garage when its done ,, this won't be an all out build either, it will be a more budget type build,, here are a few starting picts,, notice the totally different steering head angles? i will cut the neck off the pitbike frame and strech it 2 inches,, i will cut all the mounts and brackets off to while i am at it. since i already have a 70 neck cut off it will be easy to get it setup too,,, by the way i have a very nice motor out of the pit bike its only 50cc's but it runs great all the crap off the pit bike is for sale CHEAP,,,

    Kasey: I'm interested in the pit bike parts, I noticed on your profile you don't receive pm's so if you could email me pictures (easier than making a list) and kill two birds with one stone that'd be great. elliotrepko13@hotmail.com <--- and fyi noo, I not 13y old
