    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.

Does anyone know of a smooth swap between these 2? GSXR 1100 or 750 forks better for the bike? Cost of project? If i swap to GSXR front brake system do i need to change the master cylinder? Anything else i should know?

Do some searching here, this topic has been covered repeatedly. Best thread on swaps I have seen is from Katman, titled "Building an I.C.B.M. Katana". Do a search on that and you will find a wealth of pics and info.

The 1100 forks are longer, which is desirable unless you are building a drag bike, the 94 triples should fit into your steering head with no mods at all. Suzuki kept the steering head bearings the same for a lot of years and this is a good thing for you. If you are swapping forks, then you need to swap triples, wheel, brakes, everything. The best way to do that is to buy a complete front end and fit it, as this saves chasing around for a lot of little parts. Then you are going to want to add in a 17" rear wheel to match the front end and run radials on both ends. Do not mix bias and radial tires, it can result in some very "interesting", unpredictable handling issues.
