Shop parts for a 2014 Cobra CX50JR Dirt Bike.
The 2014 Cobra CX50JR delivers the Junior motocross platform with updated suspension components and revised chassis geometry in its ninth year. The air-cooled 50cc two-stroke single continues serving the youngest motocross competitors with approachable performance. Revised geometry on the 2014 JR optimizes the chassis for current 50cc class rules and the typical rider profile competing in that class. Updated fork geometry changes the steering trail and offset — swingarm pivot bolt at 18 Nm and fork clamp bolts at 8 Nm maintain the precise alignment that the revised geometry produces, preserving the handling improvements Cobra’s development work achieved.
