There is not much else to say that has not already been said here except you will
need to trim 5mm of the bottom fork tube and make a 5 mm shim to hold the bearing dust cover bottom as the BVC kit is made for a Tri-Z 250 you will loose your speedometer so i installed a plate and Trail tech computer "I wanted an RPM gauge anyway" I will update when I start the rear is done, Any questions feel free to ask . Except why because I just don't know I have issues OK .

That is very nice.
Imagine it took a bit of effort researching and sourcing the needed parts that would play together w/o much additional modification. Hope it delivers sand performance good enough for your loose Jersey sugar sand.
Perhaps a wider foot for the side stand could be a valuable addition unless you're one of those who just dig a hole deep enough to support the bike.

Look good how does it rde on the road I bet the new forks are sweet.

 

[Snow Fox]

Wow, what a project! Welcome!

Welcome to the forum. Nice mods. TinyWheel200 had the first setup on the forum similar to yours. He used the Tri-Z front end. He shot some great videos.

Thanks , it was a lot of measuring almost wish I could have used the tripple that uses the crf250 forks as used parts are half price but I think it would have raised the front end to high

Thanks
I Just finished yesterday I dont think I will do to much road till I get new tires the front that's on it now is about 12-15 years old off my old quad but I will keep you updated after I save up for tires

Welcome to the forum JfJ!!

That front end's gonna ride plush! Very nice work!

I assume you'll be fabbing something up for the rear?

 

[Fred]

The stock TW just begs for a plusher front suspension. While there are upgrades for the OEM 6” travel forks one can also go route of longer and/ or more sophisticated forks. My TWs have both Tri-Z and TTR forks but imagine other’s options would work. Extra travel is very appreciated at times

 

[GreasyDave]

Very nice work !! Looks fantastic, I bet it will be great to ride around !!

Here are some pictures of the Bradley Performance rear hub if anyone is interested it fits a standard atv rim

Here is my bvc fat tire conversion. I wanted more power, went with a 450X and had it bored out to a 490

Now, I could live with that .....

Thats a really nice build , if you're ever in South Jersey hit me up lets go tear up some sand

Here is a picture of the bike almost complete going to go for a long ride the next nice day I went with DOT tires, though they are not for highway use but I do not think I would ever go on the highway with a TW
