Cr 250 pre 75 forks

[Graham]

Can some one tell me the outside fork tube dia, and the over all lenght of these forks

Thanks

35mm. I could not tell you the length but they are supposedly the same as XL250. I have the measurement of those somewhere if it helps.

Well so far so good 35mm dia,is there a difference in the lenght,between these era's

[jimg1au]

yes the 75 76 are longer and have a different top no nut like on the 73 74

The CR250M fork staunchions (chrome sliders) are longer by around 2". Both are 35mm as previously mentioned.
It's a good XL250 mod if you want more travel on the front. Everything is interchangeable between the CR250M (73-74) and the XL250 K0 (72-73) forks.

Only other obvious difference is the external speedo cable mount on the RHS.

Best person to ask for exact length is forum member Nathan S , as I just sold him a set of CR250M forks and I do believe he has XL bits as well to measure against.

oops sorry .... I meant Stan S , not Nathan S .....

I have my 73/74 250m in bits at the mo,the forks are still together, unladen(I.E. topped out) they are 820mm from top of fork cap to the bottom of the axle clamp

Thanks Guys looks all good I can fit the forks as they are the correct period.
