Chances are no. Search and you'll see quite a few conversions on here like the xr600 and what not, but most involved ALOT of fabrication. It wont be a bolt in setup i would imagine.

I did one with an 84 cr125. It was a fun little project but in the end i disected it, just too small. If it was a 250 i would've kept it, but im a big guy and 125cc just dont cut it. The front end was easy, i used a 250r setup and just had to lengthen the stem on the tripple clamp. The rear end was the tricky part, to get the chain to align up i had to make a custom swinger that was offset, then use wheel spacers on one side to get the tires to be centered with the machine. I still have that swingarm, and custom tripples up in my cabinet. I dont know how to make a direct link, but if you type in cr-atc in the search feature you will see my thread on the whole thing. Maybe someone will make a link, or inform me on how to do it.
