Im looking for the list of fork lengths,I must have it somewhere and Im curious now.
I did find this www.caferacer.net/forum/project-builds/1...onversion-chart.html which might also be interestig for you.

Found this at ZRXOA

ZRX1100 766mm (30,15'')
ZX10R 06-07 743mm (29,25'')
ZX10R 04-05 730mm (28,75'')
ZX14 742mm (29,25'')
ZX636 750mm (29,5'')
ZX9r B4 94-97 766mm (30,15'')

I have a set of the zx9r forks in my rafters, they are indeed plenty long and there's mods you can do to the top tree to gain another 3/4" or so. One of the members here had details on that in his build thread

Any idea who? Im curious as I was talking with someone about it today and Ive seen the stepped triple trees but how would you 'mod' a triple tree?

I think it's mark1112 or some username like that? The top bolt on the zx9r is recessed, he had that area cut out, and a plate welded flush with the top of the tree, allowing the top clamp to be dropped 3/4" or so, effectively lengthening the forks, and using the stock triples

Here it is, post by mark1122

Floivanus,Huge thanks.I never would have found that thread. Its a very smart idea. Every little bit counts. Great.

Huge thanks from me as well. That is a very cool and simple mod that I would never have thought off.

With that mod the usds come close to the stock length.

That is indeed a nice list davido. Usually I check allballs their conversion chart which comes in handy too. You can find it on their website. Allballs fork conversion But they don't include stem length etc.

Ok, I have a full zx7r front from the year 97-03. I was lucky to find it, but I doubt I'll find a full zx9r front end that easily. So now I'll go research and see if the forks are interchangeable, then I can use the zx7r brakes, triples, wheel, with the zx9r forks. It will be easier just finding forks, than a full front end.

Have a look here

There are a few ZX9s up for slooping. Worth giving them a call
Or keep an eye on this page
www.marktplaats.nl/z.html?query=zx9r&cat...2022&postcode=1019MC
and see if anything comes up.
There are a couple of slooperijs advertising from Belgium.I bought mine from a guy in the south of Holland. You might get lucky and find something near to you.
Good luck.

The forks I believe are interchangeable, not sure if the trees are the same for the 7 and 9 or not tho

As far as I have researched for interchangeability between zx7r 97-03 and zx9r 94-97 the rotors, wheel and axle are interchangeable, but the brake calipers are not. zx9r is also 4 pot caliper, and zx7r 6 pot. I don't know about the trees yet.

Yup davido, I think he's called broux sloperij. I bought a few things from him in the past which were good. Btw I forgot, but that Jan Smit is also known around here! Never been there though, but heard only good things about that guy.

I went onto markplaats and 2dehands and sent around some mails, got two ridiculous high prices till now. But... I called another guy in belgium who's parting out a zx9r and he has the full front end left except for the clip ons. I offered him 200 euros by phone and he accepted But first I'll go see what the condition of the stanchions are before I buy.

Lacher,youve sent me down a road that Ive been avoiding for a while now.Time to face it.
Not wanting to hijack your thread so Ive (Taken my toys and gone home!) taken this over to my build thread where it should be. Good luck with yours ,Ill be following and you can check mine now and again to see how I deal with the ground clearance (or not!!!)

ZXR750 forks. Very cheap!! Dodgy chrome but at that price you could afford to get them rechromed.
