We did a CR85 conversion on our CRF230 and they were awesome. Plenty heavy duty enough. You'll need to change springs to .44kg/mm to account for the difference in weight of the bike.
They are 37mm inverted Showas and they made a world of difference.

I'm getting ready to do this same mod and I'm curious what the rider's weight is for your bike. The main rider of this bike will be about 145lbs, but I'm around 195 and will also ride it from time to time. Are the CR85 forks with .44kg/mm springs for a lighter rider, or will I be ok if I don't hammer it too hard?
Thanks,
Mike
