    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.

Hi.

I want to change the front of my bike, but is there any fronts that fit right in? No big modifications and such...

You want to swap forks? Are you looking at USD forks? Give us a little more information as to what you are looking for specifically and we can definitely help you :)
 
Everything from the tank and forward. I have seen on some photos that GSXR forks, tyre and brakes has been used. I also want to have a bigger rear tyre

BTW, I doing this because I want to see if I can maybe build a cafe/fighter, but I have limited resources.

USD forks??
 
Upside down forks, (inverted) like on the modern day super sport bikes.

Click to expand...

Almost any Suzuki front end matches up to the steering stem, the problem is the length of the fork tube. Many USD forks are up to 2" shorter than stock

I put a 1990s Katana front end on my 78, just a bit of cutting on the steering stops

On the rear wheel, a 1100 swingarm allows wider wheels

Wheels, spacers, new tires, a front end - you expect thiis to be cheap??
 
Not much to see really. Winter is here, so I cant take the bike outside for a photo. My little work space is so small, more the size of an outdoor toilet he he

Big T: Thank you for the info. Money is not the big problem, it's my mecanical skills that can be a problem he he.
