Suspension came from a 98 mike Craig Honda of Troy bike being parted out. You will need to change the clevis to whatever year bike you want to put it on as the 98/99 clevis is shorter. Will also need the old style brake hanger. Has gold billet showa fork caps. Shock is kashima. Fork tubes are in good shape. The lugs are ano but do have some wear. Forks are 47mm uppers are kashima but the lighter old school color.

Sorry, I don’t mean to high jack your post.
Will the shock fit in the frame as is? I know the length will be wrong but will it at least bolt into the frame. I’m considering buying a 2007 CR A-Kit shock body to use but I will still need a clevis. I’ll probably find a unicorn before I find the parts I need.
My problem is I’m not rich. I have 3 kids and and wife to be that all depend on me. Maybe we started our family to young but it’s the choice we made. I pay all of our bills including the mortgage which puts a hurting on me. It takes me time to bank some money so I can do a project like this. Forgive me for not wanting to waste money on a trial and error process. I thought the point of this forum was to help other riders out but maybe it just to figure out who has the fattest wallet.
P.S
I already talked to FC, they said the will look into but I never heard back from them. I also called PC and the guy that answered want very interested in helping me. They loose interest when they hear me say CR250. I’m guessing it’s because there isn’t any money in it. The PC guy said they have pretty much sold off all parts for CR’s and they won’t be getting anymore.
THIS^^ I needed a reminder why I sold out my stuff and left.
You can have either cheap or nice. Do you use the cheapest safety gear when you're in a mine, or the lowest-bidder healthcare for your kids?
Everyone of us has a story or more about the front desk people at PC or FC, the average age there is maybe 21 and that's when then adults are working. If it's not a 4t they don't care. To find speciality stuff you have to network and be willing to spend, because there are going to be other people who want the same stuff but who aren't constrained by budget. I have dealt with CRguy many times and he's good people. Arrgh, what's the use. Good luck everyone!
I have no problem buying what I need but I won’t pay twice the value of something and would rather not purchase a incorrect item.
You know that old saying “work smart not hard”, I thought that’s what I was doing by coming to Vital for advice. Let me know when you guys are accepting applications into your seceret brother hood. Maybe I’ll have enough street cred by then to get in.
Thanks.
Thanks again, sorry your post is jacked up.
