250r or 200x FORK TUBES(not triple tree) fit on a 250sx?

[crd00]

Will the fork tubes out of a 250r or a 200x fit in the stock triple tree of a 250sx?? HELP!:confused: :cry:

[crd00]

so no one knows the answer to this question?

[nouseforaname90]

I'm pretty sure that the 250R ones are way too big, but I'm not sure about the 200X ones... I've never owned one so I don't know the size of the tubes.

[crd00]

Thank you for your reply:w00t: anyone else?

[crd00]

A lot of people have 200x's and 250sx's and no one knows if they fit??????????I really need help here so I can save money

[nouseforaname90]

250sxwheeliepop should know because he put a 200X front end on his 250SX. I'm assuming that the forks from the 200X don't fit into the 250SX tripples because when you do a 200X front end conversion on a 250SX, you need to put on the 200X tripples and everything.. you can't just slide the forks right on.

Nouse, can you measure the diameter of the stock SX forks? then they can be matched up to some similar.

[nouseforaname90]

Yeah.. I'll measure them whenever I get home from school. They are pretty tiny..

[staceyl200]

Just measured my forks and the 250R are 39mm dia and the 200X forks are 33mm dia (the tubes) Hope this helps
Cheers

I have seen a set of 200X forks on 250SX triple clamps before. I didnt ride it so I dont know how the overall worked out but I know that they were on it and it was working ok

[crd00]

does anyone know of this for sure? because i really need to find out

[crd00]

I just measured my tubes and they are 33mm....correct me if im wrong

Theres definetly 1000 people on this site whos had a 200x or a 250sx at some point and no one can tell me this simple question? All I need to know is if the frok tubes off a 200x will slip right in a 250sx triple tree because Im buying 200x tubes but I dont want to buy the tree if I dont need it

[trikeaddict]

Can someone just answer him because I'm tired of lookig at this post. Its only a simple question. I cant answer it because Ive only had yamaha's:w00t:

[slothminx]

Be patient, people arent here to answer all the time.

By the sounds of it 200x forks will slide right in, but remember you will need the entire braking system off the X too from master cylinder to caliper.

[crd00]

Hopefully they will slide right in but the only reason im in such a hurry is because my sale is being held up

[crd00]

anyone?:wondering

pms are cleaned out

[honda250sx]

Working on a 250sx conversion right now. Dont believe that the 200x forks will work on 250sx tree's. I bought a 200x front end and i am in the process of swapping. Then again i have not a fricking clue on how your going to mount up a rim and brakes. So dont know what your plans are other than riding on forks.

[Tri-ZNate]

when you put the 200x forks the sx parts drop off and you just put a 200x caliper, axel and so on on it.

[thefox]

Are your forks bent? Corect me if I am wrong but if you are going for the narrow front tire then you would want to run the 200x tripple tree otherwise your shocks will be wider then the 200x axle.

[Dirtcrasher]

They slide right in the 250SX triples. It is a poor mans conversion and requires spacers to be fabricated to center whatever hub you chose to run, stock SX X or R all fit the SX axle. You don't HAVE to run brakes and good ones are tough to find anyhow. Your front end will be a bit higher and will have better suspension but I would do the whole swap if it were me....

[crd00]

ok thanks guys, I'm in the process of buying the whole front end now anyways.Its soon getting shipped:w00t:
