Hey guys,

Curious if anyone knows what options I have to switch out my 2013 CRF450 air forks to springers.

YZF swap? CRF250 swap?

I'm pretty sure it's 10+ crf250 and 09+ crf450 should bolt right up

I put 2014 CRF250 Showa springers on my 13 Honda 450. Best move I made!

Direct bolt on, no mods needed other than valving and springs for the weight of a 450.

Ohlins RXF maybe? Huge improvement over stock.

Thanks guys.

A buddy has the Ohlins cartridges on his 2015 and seems happy.

Was looking for what forks could be completely swapped as I wasn't sure of the compatible years.

So the 2009-2012 CRF450 would work?

10-17 crf250 and 09-17 CRF450 forks will work in your 13 clamps.

Yo brother! Long time no talk. I really had a good feeling with my 2013 CRF450 air forks after Factory Connection revalved them. Before that they were pretty bad.
