    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

while I know that this WILL work, my question is: Is is worth it? I can get all the parts for $150. Complete forks upper and lower triples, brakes, fender, swingarm, front and rear wheels, rear caliper. EVERYTHING... I just don't know if the forks are long enough or if they are relatively close to being sprung at the correct rate. Thanks for the input
 
Mine was okay with the swap because i had a 16in wheel as stock. They are sprung on the soft side, i think the Kat riders forum has a sticky style thread on that called the $1 mod. I added an inch to the preload spacer on the first gen (that's '88-'97 600/750's) forks that are on my '83. I don't know if the '98 and newer have any difference with the fork length.
