The Yamaha PW50 is a great bike, let's get that on record right away! It's the first bike for almost every budding motocross racer, and the first class a little racer will be riding in if they decide to hit the track between 3-6 years old. The only issue is that these little bikes have suspension that was certainly not built to handle the motocross track, so what do you do when your kid decides he likes jumping his PW50? Well, aftermarket forks are non-existent for these bikes, but luckily Yamaha upgraded the forks on the 2017+ models of PW50's. With a few parts from the 2017+ PW50, you can retrofit the earlier models with the newer oil-filled forks from the newer models and add a little better bump absorbing capabilities to your little riders bike. Here's how I did it.

Back off the bearing cup slightly and tighten top bolt to spec. Keep adjusting until you have the correct bearing preload on the stem bearings.

Can you make a list of parts used and put in video description? Did you get the new spacer?

Thinking of doing the same for my son, did you notice a difference / was it worth it?

John5XR, Thanks for that video. I have a 2014 PW50 and my son wrecked in practice last weekend. He bent the top tubes of the forks. If you don't have plans for your old forks, would you be willing to sell me your old ones? Finding used forks is tough. Thanks for considering and I appreciate your video.
