70s arent really supposed to be suspended...but i guess you could stick a honda 200s front end on there...anything else it would just make the quad look silly. probably would need a lot of mods too. Better just stick with your suspension. Just my opnion.

Hey! I was just looking on 3wheelerworld.com and saw the racing atc 70s. Im guessin they are the front forks off of a mini motorcycle. You could probably cut off the first bit for the original front forks then re-weld a section from a honda crf50 and possibly put on a stock on or aftermarket one. seems like a bit of work but mainly welding and sawing i guess.

Fix it, dont fix it, fix it, dont fix it. Talk to that following that goes out to Glamis I think. Someone give a link. They have some truley tricked out 70's.

the only problem with suspending the front and not the back,,,,,
it raises the front up and changes the fork angle makin it harder to steer,,,, i have a set of triple clamps that work on a 70 ,,, they use xr 80 forks NO THEY'RE NOT FOR SALE

:D

hello i am a new bee to 3 wheeler.org. and i had the same thought ,but i would try to use a crf 50 front forks. because thay are pretty short and if i could find a set of triple tree clamps off any thing that is not to wide and then you could adjust your forks lower if you had to. the same way i lower the fronts on my 350x.
