CR250 USD forks on XTR

I doing the USD conversion..
I'm useing 2000 Honda CR250 USD Showa units..
It's turned out a lot easyer than I thought it would be.
The Honda forks are all but a drop in conversion...
CR & XTR use the same bottom bearing 30x55x17
just needed a 7mm thick spacer to put on the CR steering stem
before the Yamaha seal & bearing as the CR stem is a little longer..
CR yokes are half the weight of the XT unit as it has a
titanium stem...

Then the top Yamaha 25x47x15 bearing is replaced with a
"32906" 30x47x12 bearing..

Be a couple of weeks before I can test ride it... forks are away getting the
the MX valve stacks replaced with a more enduro set up & heavyer springs
to carry the XTs weight.. being twin chamber canister forks I figgered it better to let
someone that knows what they are doing play with them..

Ohlins shock next..........

sorry no pics ... I left the camrea on a picnic table at the beach..
