- Using RH Moto Worx parts found here: www.rhmotoworx.com, we swap a CR80 front end on with disc brake, and add a rear lift link with Vonkat shock to get this 1993 XR100 sitting like it should.
We chose to swap over a 19 inch CR85RB front wheel to keep the front wheel diameter the same.
Ho Robert, hope zu see something about two stroke engines and two wheeler from the 80's and 90's. I will follow this Channel. Best wishes from Germany, Tobias
Nice catch on that washer. Video should say how to swap forks with kung fu, followed by snatch the dog bone out of my hand and win this bike.
Next video ;)
Can you provide links for where you got the rear link and shock?
We make the rear link. www.rhmotoworx.com. Type Vonkat into the internet for the shock :)
Awesome video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hello can this stem work on cr85 forks
That option is available on our website, yes. www.rhmotoworx.com
could you jut take out the fork tubes and swap them
Good question! No, the tube diameter on the CR is larger.
@@rhmotoworx7920 oh ok
Will this rear linkage also work on an XR80R? I have a 1993 XR80R and the bushings are worn out in the linkage on it.
Yup!
Hello
Super swap/video. Sorry about my English. The front wheel diameter of the 80 cr is identical to the origin of the XR? You stay in 19" ? Thank you.👊
Hey, We swapped over a 19 inch CR85RB front wheel in place of the 17 inch that came with the 1993 CR80 front end. You are right, we wanted to keep the same wheel diameter that the xr100 came with.
@@rhmotoworx7920 Very smart to use a front of a cr85rb👌. Thank you very much and very nice job.
I have the 86 xr80. im getting parts together for this conversion.love the video. Thanks for the tutorial. I still need a conversion for rear disk brakes. If not ill just get xr100 swingarm and wheel for now. I want to upgrade the ignition to a better newer style also.
Awesome! We are working on that last part you need ;)
@@conniestevenson226 can I do this on my 04 xr80
Hello, I’m trying to get the rear link for an xr80 1992 but is still out of stock at your website. Do you know when is going to be available again? Thank you.
They are back in stock, order up!
This is great!
Would love a parts list though. What bushings did you use on the linkage? Did they come with the linkage? Or did you use the original ones?
Hi Dominik, The bushings are the same to rebuild your stock piece and do not come with the link. If you head to our website the how to guides have the details you are after. Feel free to email us for more questions.
@@rhmotoworx7920 would you happen to have a link to the lift link bushings ? Please thanks in advance
Would that link be to high for the stock forks ( with cut springs and a spacer)? Have the vonkat already but still seems lower in the back when rider weight is on. 2 and 1 half turns on preload of vonkat. 04 crf.
Hi Mike, we have customers that just do the rear and it looks and works fine. But it will amplify how bad the front end really is ha.
Nice! Do you guys also provide service for this conversion for people who don't have the tools or space to work? Thanks
Hi there, at this time we only offer parts, however any local motorcycle shop will be able to help you with your build.
Do you know if this will work with a 89?
100% yes, We offer parts for 1985 to 2013 XR/CRF 80/100.
can it outrun a semi now?
Only one way to find out...
Your website states that there are reports that the current version of the Fatboy shock does not fit any longer, why is that?
The diameter of the V2 fatboy shock is larger. Some say it works, some say it doesn't. Please use discretion.
@@rhmotoworx7920 I took a chance and went ahead and ordered the link, the V2 did fit my son’s 1999 xr with some gentle persuasion. He loves it. Thank you. He wants to do the front conversion now.
I’m really wanting to do this on my 1996 xr100r is it possible to do the conversion with a set of newer cr85 inverted forks?
Hi Kyle, You can run the newer CR85 front end on your 96 no problem. Any of our XR100 stems will work on any year bike so that gives you more options.
Will this fit 97 xr 100r
Yup!
Can you put just the linkage and keep the stock shock?
Yes, some do that. but the linkage makes it feel 20% softer so if you are an adult it will be too soft. for a kid wanting more travel you can leave the stock shock.
@@rhmotoworx7920 Thanks. 👍
Hermoso xr
Gracias!
Can I do this to my xr80? 04 model just curious if it will bolt up with the kit and proper instal… will run the smaller 85 wheel
100% yes, the 80s are lots of fun setup like this.
How higher dose the bike sit with these changes
Hey, About 2 inches
Can you use a crf150 ft end
Crf150r yes!
Looking to get everything to do this to my xr 100 soon, one question did you guys shorten the cr fork at all cause they like pretty well balanced with the lift in the rear end!👍 thanks
Hey Hunter, We did not shorten the forks but slid them up in the clamps a little bit.
