what size wheels are you looking at
 
Think the pitpro came out as a big wheel too, so you should be good for the shock and forks. you might be lucky and just have to change wheels

i think pitpro upgrades the swingarm on the bigger wheel models, he might get away with the forks though ;)
 
its a crf50 style right??
iv only seen pitpro bigfoots in klx style so dont be surprised if it looks and handles like poo.. (different geometry)

forks will def need to be changed or it will sit too low in the front and the standard swinga will be too short..
 
Can you get stiffer springs for the forks, I think if you put in stiffer springs it wouldn't bottom as much, the front wheel would be alright.
 
chances are the wheel will interfere with the cylinder head and there will be less travel on the forks due to it more than likely hitting the front guard before full compression in the forks...

also the geometry of the bike needs to be maintained. cant raise the back without raising the front..

I wish someone would tell all of those hells angels types this information.

Some of those noisy American things seem to defy the laws of physics let alone geometry. They still look kind of cool though, if your into that sort of thing.

As has been said.

Swingarm, forks, rear shock?, chain, patience and lots of trial and error.

Logic.
