I'm not a big cruiser fan as I prefer sport bikes, but I love your minis!

Re: Some call it an addiction, I call it a collection!

As much as I love all my bikes there isn't one I wouldn't sell for 10 grand! Even my KTM race bike. In the theme of wall street= Sell! Sell! Sell! I should have been running Lehman Brothers!!

Re: Some call it an addiction, I call it a collection!

Im looking to put a larger suspension on my 94 z50r. Been doing some research. I see yours and thats exactly what im looking to do, however i want to run the stock z wheels and wide tires. Is that a xr75 rear swing arm with the old dual shock cr80 shocks? 12 inches long eye to eye? and the front.... xr80 forks with ??? triple clamps??? I was going to run the zb50 triple clamps but then i read to use xr75/sl70/xr80 forks you have to shim the lower triple tree so it will clamp tight on the fork tubes. Just trying to get an idea of what i need to do. Im 6ft and 200 lbs do you think your rear shock setup would be good for me? I ride alot of trails and jump it quite a bit. Thanks for any info...

I'm a buck sixty and and I used a 12" shock set that I bought at Northern Tools ( for the 'Taco' bike). Very stiff but will break in. ($30.00 a set new and no shipping) You will have to save or get new sleeves for the bushings.
