Gents,

what is the go with the different lengths of Fox Air Shox ie 17 1/2 and 17 3/4? Will either set fit on my 1978 CR 250R or do I need a different swingarm to accommodate the 17 3/4's. Are there any mods other than the chain protector I will need to do?

thanks again

Rossco

Chances are that whoever is giving you the 17 3/4" figure is measuring differently. Even if they were correct I seriously doubt that the extra 1/4" will make any difference on the 78-80 CR250R's.
