Lt250R front widening kit
« on: May 05, 2013, 05:53:39 pm »
I've seen these before on honda 250x/300ex just found them for a 250QR. Anybody ever try them? Seems like a cheap easy way to improve handling?  http://www.diamondjcustoms.com/widening/suzuki/lt-250r.htm

Looks like a bad design hits mass production.

They screw up the front geometry even worse than it is. There's a LONG thread about them on exriders from a year or two back. Moving the arm pivots outward will increase the bump steer. The frame is already too wide in the front as it is.

I've seen those before.  I would not put that on any bike.  Talk about f--king up the front geometry.
