+1 on the lights as well. I'm normally not a big fan of the double lights, but this one looks ultra cool on this bike. Liking the whole look of the bike, kinda like a muscle bike. Looks fast standing still.

Why change the stock gauges. I have a late model front end on
my bike (was late model when fitted 95') and fitted the stock
gauges (A1 Z1000). They are one of the best features on these
bikes. :blink: :blink:

Still an option. I might just do that when I go efi.

Post a picture and details of your setup if you dont mind. 2 things about the zrx guages I dont care for are the speedo is cable operated and the covers are plastic. I thought the 1100 where chrome steel. I would much rather have had real chrome steel than chrome plastic. I should have asked about that before I bought them for $100.

Do you know if the tachometer on the zrx gauges are cable driven too? If not how are you hooking it up? Been thinking of getting some zrx gauges for my build.

Sorry for the late reply I had a ride day at Phillip Island. It was AWESOME
So good thing about that is I removed the headlight and other lights. Just in case.

Rage, Im pretty sure my tach is electric. There is only one cable hookup (1999 zrx). If need be, I will change out the inner part of the guages to all electric.
Harvey1327, man that is a sweet setup. If I had a set of those I would scrap this in a heartbeat. Nothing is set in stone on this bike, I just need to get it road worthy by this spring. Priorties are Brakes, tank, engine, lights etc..oh yeah and the wife keeps looking for passenger pegs.

It's a suzuki rf900 1995 complete front end.
It puts you in an upright position like stock.
What is on your bike in the pic on the right?
What's the distance between the bottom triple
and the wheel?
Thanks
