I do no have a front GSXR wheel yet but I do have a rear on it's way. Apparently my forks showed up today.... I am chomping at the bit to get out of work today!

First off- looks like it's going to be a really cool build when it's all done.
Secondly- I'll be following this thread closely as I'm just about to start a fork swap/swingarm swap on my 650.
Keep up the good work!

Some mock up fun today! I couldn't help myself. Obviously it's way to low on that furniture mover but I needed to get an idea!

I think I might have stumbled upon a lucky combination with my forks. The stem on the GSXR forks appears to be the right length, I even put my stock triple trees back to back the the Suzuki's and the are the same length and what looks like the same diameter I have not pulled out tape measure to be 100% positive yet tho. Has anybody heard of this ever happening like this?

They are niether the same total length or the same width, however from the base of the lower bearing race to the top of the lock nut threads are with 1/8" the kz's being longer. I think I might be able to measure for the right bearings and have it bolt in.
