I have a 1980 cr125 that I put 1982 cr480 forks on. Can anyone give me a ballpark idea of how high the forks should be above the top triple clamp? -- top of fork cap to top of triple clamp in mm --I know this is a suit to taste adjustment but I dont know where to start because the new forks are much taller than the old. Thanks for your help. |

messure both forks from axle middle to the top, the difference is what you start with. |
