I’m not trying to cause you any issues, but when you say they fit CR250 and possibly CRF, do you know how wide the triple clamps are, because those forks were for the steel framed CR’s. Which would normally have 185mm spacing on the triple clamps, were
Aluminum framed Honda’s had 192mm spacing. So for those to work you really need to know the spacing

Yup. You beat me to it. Those look like older version Showas.

He easily has the worst ads on the site. Never any details, no set up info, what they came off of, what they actually will fit, just a couple pics and a price.

High dollar items too, would be well served to create a decent ad and really make some money.

There 1997 and off a 125, Lamson and Sheak ran them, they only ran them on the 125 for 1 year, the 250 ran a different set of forks.

I say it's a good/balanced price for a rare setup in that condition. GLWS.

Here’s Everts 99 Cr250




The Everts forks are the 1998-1999 works Showa’s forks for the 250, they are quite a bit different , I have a set of those. They are both 49mm, but have different coatings on the lower tubes. Everts had redish brown TIN coating were the forks that are for sale have Black DLC. Also the upper tubes on Everts have a yellowish clear anodize, were the forks that are for sale are the whitish hard anodize, some people confuse it for magnesium, which they are not. The fork caps are completely different from each other, yes they are both red, Everts has duel bleed screws where the forks for sale have a single bleed screw and the part were the bleed screws are doesn’t go alway across the top of the fork cap, has an angle down. The forks for sale were only run on the 125’s one year, maybe a year and a half. So far most of these thing are just cosmetic issue, I prefer the 125 forks better in the way they look. But here the kicker, they had smaller cartridges and compression adjusters also pistons. They can off the 45mm twin chamber works Showa’s forks off a previous design that was also run on 125 one year. The 45mm twin chamber forks are very rare. Henry ran them in 1994 on his RC125. Everts 49mm forks had much bigger chambers, pistons and compression adjusters that were designed for the 49mm forks. Have Richard show you a picture of the fork caps!

Matt.3150, so these should bolt on to any steel frame CR 93-96 with maybe a stem swap for certain models?

Judging by the angle of the frame stops on the lower clamp I don’t believe the clamps are for a steel frame, with the fork caps being stamped “7A01” that should indicate that they were built in 97, one question I do have is could these have been used on the 250, and if they were 125 only, from looking at pics of lamson and sheaks bikes they had different front hubs with lamsons being a machined silver and sheaks being coated black, any idea if the forks or a potential clamp width difference dictated that?
