98 ec250 converting to WP forks / caliper ??

[98ec250]

Hello all !

I'm converting my 98ec250 to a WP USD fork setup.
I would like to know if anyone has information as to what caliper I need to match up to the WP forks.
I have a 01 CR250 caliper that has the correct bolt pattern, but the center of the caliper hits the fork so that is out....
Do I need to look for a GG caliper, or does anyone know of an interchange?
I have the axle and required spacers on order, so the brakes are the only thing stopping me from finishing the swap (pun intended).

Thanks for any info!

Jim,

I've done this conversion, I am also using a Nissin Caliper, however you need the correct caliper bracket that mounts to fork lugs. It is a GasGas part, and if you call Go.Fasters, they can hook you up!

I bought a complete front end off of an 03, 300 with WP forks, so it was a very easy swap.

Let me know if you need anymore info.

Good Luck

Ok, so I must use the CR250 Nissin caliper I have, PLUS the correct bracket from a 2001+ model GG.
Got it, thanks a million!
I would have loved to have the whole front end assembly to work with, but since I traded my buddy for the forks, so I don't have much $$$ in the swap so far besides the labor for a revalve/rebuild.

I appreciate the response Rick !!
