Title: need a pair of fork legs or lowers for a Suzuki GT250N-Z '79-'82
Post by: Doc on December 19, 2007, 05:48:48 pm
Not exactly vmx yet but they will be if I can get my hands on a pair  ;)

I need GT250 Suzuki 33mm fork lowers or complete fork both left and right.

33mm means they have to be from a '79-'82  model. Hardchrome condition is unimportant.

email me at [email protected] or message me here..I'm away from the phone often and still live in the 70's when mobile phones were not an issue ;)

mmmm  :-\ okay scrap those forks, (I have found others that fit ;D) how about a GT250 or 380 master cylinder ?? I've got one but the reservoir is not a happy camper and pretty broken up. Would anyone have one of these critters they wish to part with?

Here's one on eBay, but you can still buy new from Alpha sport for half that price

As for a front end on your GT250X7 I can recommend the twin disk setup from the 82 GSX400 (four cylinder) using the 18" wheel from the GT.

mmm thanks cyclegod..I did have a look at the fleabay res but I'm sure I can find a complete m/cylinder assy locally for much the same or less $. The forks I only need the lowers to suit 33mm inners. The X7 or GT250N-Z was the only road model around this era with that size fork tube.(I think) If not I can switch to 30mm early GT185 forks but then the wheel I have to use weighs a lot more than the wheel I plan to run. This is for a dirt track project, unsure if I'll follow through with until I know it could work. If I can get cheapy bits, enough to try things, then I can go silly later and refurbish anything thats fugly.  :)

Hi Doc, I've got a GT185 here, been stacked and I've pretty much gutted it, but the forks are still here. Chrome is knackered though. I think it's about a 74 model, but not sure. Disc brake anyway. Also have the caliper, but no master cylinder. I still have the 17" front rim here too. You're welcome to come and take the lot away if ya want it.

mmmm..thanks Kel but I specifiacally wanted the GT250 lowers due to the 33mm dia inners I have. I've changed my mind with this project now and it's been fitted with TS100 19inch drum brake wheel and all seems good. Thanks anyway  ;)
