    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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.

there is an individual near by with 2 04 GSX600 front suspension/brake front end for sale for cheap. are new model forks compatible at all? i have a 1980 gs750e im reviving.
 
The forks on their own won't fit but maybe the whole front end will. Somebody on here who knows more about those crotch rocket bikes will be able to tell you if it's feasible / sensible.
 
correct me if im wrong but im sure all suzuki head bearings and stems are compatable. a mate bolted a complete gsxr750wp into his 1100 katana with no mods whatsoever. i know cuz i helped him do it

i used an 05 gsxr 750 front on my 83 1100 e with only a bearing swap.They are short though so you will need to figure out something for your exh, i used a 4-2-1 header

Send me $350 and your GSXR top clamp and I'll have Dave make you a one off drop top top clamp that'll make up for the shorter forks ;)

Seriously though, if you can afford it, that's the way to go. Whether through me or someone else, it'll not only look trick it'll look like it came from the facoty that way. Ground clearance is a must on the street, especially if you ride hard, and have crappy roads.
 
Wow that sounds amazing. Do you have any pictures of bikes with this mod done?
 
Here's my '83 750 with a '93 gsx600f front end.
