New Member, GSXR Questions

[Ellenor]

I'm looking into purchasing a gs1100e... The guy has already started doing some mods to it so i figured it would be an excellent project since i was going to tear apart a bike anyways.

I wanted to get some insight into what are the parts,mods, and problems (lol) involved with doing a gsxr swap on the front and rear.
also what cluth, chain, sprocket, brakes, forks etc involved with the swap.

Long story short if someone would be willing to explain the whole swap or point me in the right direction so that im not going to be lost.

"Side note I saw on ebay that they have sets of front and rear 1995 gsxr rims chromed with rotors lines etc. Didnt know if that was possible to use or pointless to buy them."

Thank you in advance, Also amazing forum.

I have heard that the 1991-1995 GSXR front ends will bolt right up. You will just need to weld on some new steering stops.

But what do I know? Do a search here on The GS Resources. I know that Salty Monk did it to his GS750 and posplayr did it to his GS1100E. Other people have done it as well.

www.oldskoolsuzuki.info is another great source for that kind of stuff.

Here is one. Search GSXR conversion. Another thing is do you want USD or RSU forks? Also got to watch ground clearances.

Depends on what you want to achieve.

Would have to be a late 1100E with mono shock first as the earlier ones weren't and welding extra bits in takes some setting up. Then your into wheels, spacers, lining up the sprockets, pushing out steering stems, stem angles, front wheel's spacers, front wheels, up grade on brakes, new lines and cables etc etc etc.

Here is a good start on what you would need to do the conversion. Just need a few other tings like brake lines, offset sprocket and chain. Good price and don't have to hunt around trying to find some small parts.
