    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.

I inherited my brother's '78 GS1000 that I'm converting into a track-only drag racer. I'm looking for a GSXR front end for it, and I saw a few 2004's on Ebay. Anyone know if the bearings work with the GS head? What's the cutoff on years before I have to get to a machine shop to get it to work?

GSXR fork swap

Hello
I'm not sure about the cutoff yr but what u need to check for is the upper and lower bearings. The GS models use tapered roller bearings, so any Suzuki fork with tapered bearings shoud work. Just remember that one other option is to have the stering stem pressed out of the GS tripple and repace the GSXR with the GS stem.
try sooking in the other form sections with other more experienced wrenches.
Best of luck, Archie
