Awesome! So glad it helped.

​@brandonwatsonmedia Absolutely 💯 Thankyou. -NW Ohio

Awesome! Thank you for watching and commenting.

Thank you! I believe the "small wheel" 125F front fork springs are listed on the same BBR page as the "big wheel" springs: bbrmotorsports.com/Products/Products.aspx?Prod=650-HCF-1205. But the part number for the small wheel springs is 650-HCF-1305. But DEFINITELY contact BBR to make sure! 👍

Yeah, I was VERY fortunate to have my mechanic friend help me with that. I did run into that very same issue and what my friend did was do some LIGHT work on the tip of that bolt with his Bench Grinder and then we were able to screw that U attachment back on. He may have also used a tap and die as well just to finish smoothing it out - I can't remember. I think we also added a little Loctite in there after the fact for some extra security. Hope that helps.

@@brandonwatsonmedia Thanks for advice. I cutoff about 1/4 inch of the threaded end, that was flared from the factory, with a portable band saw and was able to screw the clevis back on. Thanks again.

Awesome! And thank you for taking the time to leave a comment about this. Hopefully, it provides some helpful information that will prepare others to be aware of this pain point when they get to it. 👍

Thanks for the video. My 13 year old was messing around on his 2021 big wheel and bottomed it out several times. He is 150lbs. The front forks are sweating. I better do this upgrade before the rear shock gets blown out.

Absolutely! I hope it helps.

Hey, thanks for watching. They are the: Acerbis 22397.239 Moto Hand Guards, White/Red, Size Unifit

It's a Diamond Minis Chain Guide.

@@brandonwatsonmedia I also just ordered the dm chain guard!

Yes, if you don’t have the proper tools, it can be tricky to swap the spring out on the stock 125F shock. So though more expensive, an aftermarket shock may be the best solution for some.

Best video ever, thank you so much!! Really appreciated how easy you made this!!! ❤

@@detroitpyro2859​​⁠I really appreciate you taking the time to write me and let me know that! Thank YOU!

@@brandonwatsonmedia I am 200 lbs and I have stock shock, if you had to do it over would you buy a bbr shock or do same by buying spring only? Does bbr spring actually bolt right in or are mods required? I am not very mechanical inclined. Also how much will it cost to have someone compress the spring for you to put it on vs just buying the entire bbr shock?

@@detroitpyro2859 I am by no means an expert, but here are my thoughts: Q: If you had to do it over would you buy a bbr shock or do same by buying spring only? A: For me, at the time, I didn't really have an other options for the rear shock. But now that I see more shock replacement options like VONKAT, DNM, RACING BROTHERS SHICANE SHOCK, I would be VERY interested in just going that route. For the spring, you want to make sure it is the 975lb for your weight. Q: Does bbr spring actually bolt right in or are mods required? A: The Honda stock shock has a threaded bolt that is "crimped" at the top (mentioned in other comments), that makes it kind of a pain to get the U bolt end off and on again. Q: I am not very mechanical inclined. How much will it cost to have someone compress the spring for you to put it on vs just buying the entire bbr shock? A: Based on your mechanical inclination, I would say that you would probably not want personally undertake replacing the the rear spring on the stock Honda shock. I don't know how much it would cost you to have it professionally done. I would guess something like $90 based on an hourly shop rate - that's a total guess.

Well thank you for making my day with such a flattering comment - though I know you are probably referring to the dirt bike. 😁 thank you for watching!

That’s an interesting question. But I have not seen any specs like that from BBR regarding their springs and rider weight recommendations. Which does make sense because that onus should be dictated primarily from the manufacturer of the bike itself. Considering that you have frame, swingarm, fork, etc integrity considerations. Thank you for watching!
