That's interesting.

I've been measuring up a few front ends.

I'd imagine an R1 front end would be considerably shorter than a GSX14 one.

I'm currently doing some homework on thread in extensions and stepped top yokes.

I'd love to hear more about how you get on with it.

Verrry nice :notworthy:

Would look great on my bike with the black anodised yokes I designed and had made ... something to think about for the future   :)

All the best ... Barry

one thing I know is the USD forks from a GSXR1100 L/M/N are the longest forks that suzuki made and are great for the likes of bandit's, the more modern USD forks tend to be shorter. but finding a good set of GSXR11 forks is getting really hard and if you do they are not cheap.

I have a fighter'd GSXR1100 WP ('94) with a knackered engine, but the rest of the bike is in really good nick ... not sure of difference in fork length, but I really don't want to break it, such a waste!

All the best ... Barry
