    No way would they fit in the stock tree - the CR forks are much thicker. Those front forks are also a LOT longer than the atc forks. Believe it or not most people who have inverts on their machines use 80 or 85cc dirtbike forks with progressive springs. And then, of course you need a custom tripple tree made to pull it off.

    What did you think it was going to be a bolt-in? You'd probably need a custom hub as well. And I'm sure you'd have a lot of work to do with the brake also.

    Front brakes rock, so do rear brakes.

    Front brakes are more important than the rear brakes. You just need to learn how to use them.
