Front fork Extension
01 Feb 2020 18:40
Hi all,
I have an 83 Kz250 with Clip ons and now the forks are a bit too short so it doesn't handle great.
Is there a safe way of extending the fork tubes by about 60mm?
TIA

Custom fork tubes are possibly the only option, but probably expensive. Franks Forks is the only place I know of. I guess they're still in business as a website is still up, but it's different. The ohio cafe racers fork tube conversion chart doesn't list any larger Kawasaki models that used the same size forks as yours. I was thinking a bigger model, especially an Ltd, might have longer fork tubes.
