Hey guys! I've been looking around for some better front forks but can't find any. I have a 09 sunny 50cc 4t. Any ideas?

I would *think* some stiffening up of some of the wobbly Chinese chassis might be in order before you run out of forking?

Better luck finding a good nitrogen rear shock(s) instead

Measure the diameter of the fork where it slides into the tree. Many of those 150 forks on Racing Planet will fit a 50cc tree. There was a TNG Milano 150 here today that had 10" wheels that were no wider than the 10" wheels on a 50. Seems possible to me to use 150 forks that would then allow you to use 150 brake calipers too. Edit: The ones I see listed on racing planet for 50s are 27mm diameter. The 150 ones are 30-33mm. Seems to me you could use the 30mm ones if you pry the clamps on the tree open some. This would open up much greater options in brake upgrades as well.. Many 150 brake calipers are on the right side though so you would have to simple flip your wheel around.....but you would have to get a speedometer drive gear for a 150 also to make your stock speedo work. There are adapters for the 150 forks to allow you to use a 4 piston caliper too  Might not even have to flip the wheel around. |

NP the 33mm ones probably wont work in a 27mm tree but seems to me you could pry the clamps open and use the 30mm ones no problem.
