Before adding the front suspension any time I hit a larger bump with any sort of speed or momentum, the impact to the front end would jolt my body weight back towards the seat. The front suspension softens the blow of larger bumps. This is where the front suspension really made a difference. So then I decided to drive over some rougher terrain. I was driving primarily on pavement and gravel. When I tested the new front suspension, at first I didn’t think they made much of a difference. Just make sure you route the brake cable and throttle cable so that they will not get pinched or interfere with turning. Now all that is left is to reattach the brake lever and throttle grip assembly. Once you like the placement, tighten down the clamp bolts. Then sit on the mini bike and adjust the handlebar to a comfortable riding position.

To install the handlebar, align it on top of the forks and gently tighten the handlebar clamps so you can still move the handlebar back and forth using the provided bolts. To do this, simply check the side of the tire for an arrow and make sure it points forward when at the top. Don’t over tighten the axel nut as this could damage the wheel bearings.Īlso, if the tire has a directional tread pattern, you want to make sure the tire is oriented correctly. To install the front wheel, simply hold it in place, slide the axel through with a washer between the forks and the wheel on each side. I think that would be an easy modification to the kit that would be worth it. One of the reasons I liked the CT200U model was because it had the extra front rack for carrying more gear. I was a little disappointed that the fork brackets of the new front suspension did not include bolt holes for the front rack. It is much easier if you install the front fender before the wheel, so the wheel isn’t in your way. The front fender bracket bolts on to the bottom fork bracket with two bolts and then two more nuts and bolts mount the fender to the bracket. Installing the front fender and wheel is a breeze.

Just be prepared for that extra cost.įork bracket bolts. It is a larger and heavier package, so I guess it makes sense. This changes depending on where you live, for me it was almost $55. However, when you check out, it adds in some pretty substantial shipping and handling costs. All you have to do is put in your credit card information and wait for it to be delivered.Īt the time I ordered the part it was around $175, which I think is pretty reasonable considering what you get. The kit was easy to order, just like anything else purchased online these days. The model number is FSK200UA and you can find it under the Accessories section of their website. This front fork suspension kit can only be purchased from. It is easy to purchase, easy to install and makes a big difference in the ride.
