1993 wr 250 parts onto left kicker?

Hi, I have a 1993 Husky WR 250 that I am going to part out and was wondering if it would be worth keeping any parts to hot up my 1986 500 CR?

I was thinking maybe the rear wheel and disc brake setup (has new chain and sprockets) and maybe the radiators (they are in good condition).

Might sound like a dumb question, but was wondering about the ignition? It has $300 newly rewound stator (Kokosan)- could it be made to fit?

Unfortunately the front fork uppers are severely corroded (although the bottom chrome is perfect) so I can't really use the front end unless I found some cheap fork uppers.

My plan at the moment with the CR is to put 1998 RM 250 front end on along with the rear disc setup above. I would be keeping all the original gear so it can be put back to standard if needed.

It is a shame to part out the 93 model but it needs too many parts that are too hard to find, it's practically worthless, and the wife says it has to go.

So, any comments?

keep the bike part out the wife LOL you need late 90s RM forks [49mm showa]? i got that can b had

Thanks man but just about to buy the front end from 98 RM- they don't come up very often for a reasonable price over here.

Isn't the rear axle larger in diameter? If so you kind of need another swingarm to modify the slot if going back to stock is to be kept an option. Check offset from center of sprocket. I think the whole front end will fit the steering neck, steering stops not sure if mods necessary for them. You seem to have other ideas about that. That rear wheel for an 1985 cr500 to me is a strong wheel looking at the spoke angles and spoke diameter, it also has 2.5 inch wide rim with two rim locks.

thats a shame about the chrome. you could use the entire front end off the 93, instead of the rm...unless you have the rm one already. the husky one will fit right on, no mods other than perhaps a steering stop welded to frame.

wife says it has to go? hahahahhahahahhahahaha

the 85-86 swingarm is not wide enough for the disc conversion
the 87-88 with a great amount of work can happen, seems they were headed there by designing the wider swingarm

If you could essentially trade for four stroke(of that time frame) swingarm wheel brake etc should fit in the frame. The off set from center of the shock , probably 85-86 different.

Well you could probably guess that I hadn't put much thought into this!
Just measured the swingarm width and as 2premo said it's not going to fit. The hub width is 180mm for the 1986 vs 200mm for the disc brake hub.
It may be possible to modify the whole WR swingarm to fit into the 1986- the chain is on the right side and they are both identical lengths... then there is the small issue of the shock and chain offset... starting to sound like too much work. I will do some more measuring when I get the chance though.
I may keep the front end in the hope of finding some 46mm Showa USD uppers (anybody?) as the rest of it is in pretty good shape.
Anybody confirm if the ignition may be of use... or the clutch for that matter?
Thanks to justintendo at least I know I can use the brake pedal end!

The forks should be 45mm showas.

the clutch and ignition have nothing in common with the Swedish stuff, but they are a commodity as people still need them for the 90's models

OK thanks.
