I'm redoing an 05 cr125 and ended up buying clamps and SFF forks from a 2015 CRF250.
Those with experience on these, any chance I can get away with just pressure changes and not fully revalving the things to be close?

Thanks!

You can try air pressure changes, but I would bet a revalve will be inevitable. Use showa pressure guidelines, but fudge your weight because of light bike. That's where I'd start.

Pretty much what I was thinking, thanks!

The good news is I am more comfortable on a slow bike that isn't set up for me well versus even my 250 where I can feel bad setup or crappy tires much easier.
