    motor city inverted forks?

    well i have fallen in love with my ct70. Now with 125cc engine and street tires. But i want more! the stoping power of the drum brakes is not very confidence inspiring for a new rider such as myself. I want to give this ct the best suspension i can give it and the best brakes possible. there is also a local go kart track that allows bikes and that is the ultimate goal.

    so are these forks the best i can get? mated with some good rear shocks would that be about the best setup i could get?

    Parts Motor City Mini Trails

    the only other options seems to be the nice front end. but it looks like it would cost almost as much in the end and you don't get the coolness factor. and i searched a few forums and only found 1 guy who bought them but the post never tells how they ride?

    i know some people have them out there. any help would be great

    Bob who is Racerx, owns that store. and he seems very well versed on these bikes. As soon as he gets his computer back up maybe he will answer this post.

    ide like to know this too,my brother wants those forks,....also Bob got an aluminium swingarm that i bet greatly reduces any wallowing in fast corners.....ofcourse considering the swingarm pivot bolt are torqued right and bushing in good shape.

    RacerX is the man when it comes to these things. If he sells them, they're probably pretty good forks. Also, I'm sure someone on here knows his personal email address and I'm probably sure he wouldnt mind getting your questions.

    I agree, the items he makes for the Honda Nice project are 1st class! He also gets me the better chains (soaked in parafin and the HP brake pads). The most knowledgeable person I know regarding these bikes.

    There would be NO comparison between Bob's and MTB...You can contact him at bob@ct70honda.com The guy is a perfectionist and as Hymie says, he is one of the most knowledgeable people in he world about these bikes.
