Can anyone tell me how to tell the difference between the 1985 and the 1987 CR250R front forks visually / externally? I know the '87's were the cartridge type, but any way to tell them apart without disassembly? Thanks.

Cartridge forks for the 250 started in 86. Easy to tell between the two...

Pop off the fork cap. If you see a rod attached to the cap its a cartridge fork.
