Honda cm250 front disc convertion

[tricky1970]

just wondering if cb250 front forks and brakes can be fited to a cm250. I would like to up grade from drum brake front end if possible?Tricky Trev

i'd say that it would be a straight swap,
the measurements on my cb250 are
fork distance apart 175 center to center
length from the top of the fork to the center of the axle is 690mm
the fork width is 32mm
thats for a g5, the super dreams may be different, but i doubt it
if the width is different then buy the top and bottom yokes as well and swap the whole front end

Hi,
If your CM's fork legs are the same distance apart as the CB's and the stanchions are the same diameter you might be able to just remove the CB's stanchions and fit the CM's longer stanchions in their place. Thus you will have the standard fork length but with a disc set-up at the end. I have no knowledge as to whether this can be done but if your stanchions are identical to a CB's except for the length then that is the only/cheapest way I can see to do it.
