[QUOTE="Lorin, post: 69727, member: 16153"] Mind you I am not at home to measure the tubes, but I was told that the 200 forks are 32mm and that the xr250 forks were 36mm. I have verified the difference in triple clamps, otherwise I would have just slid the new forks into the original clamps and have been done. The triple clamps from the xr250 are also a little wider, probably to allow for room for the disc brake. I did measure from the center of the axle bolt to the mounting line at the top of both forks where they line up with the top of the top triple clamp and they both measured at 33 inches, so no difference in ride height between the two forks in my particular example. You might see if you can pick up the triple clamps that correspond to the forks you bought from the salvage dealer. All that is required to make the stem work on my xr250 forks is a 3\8 inch spacer on the steering stem. I still have the triple clamps and steering stem from the 200. Feel free to e-mail me if you have any more questions. Lorin. ------------------ 1992 WR 500 If it looked easy, then it wasnt me doing it!!!
