I ended up trying a few different front ends till I came across a bike being sold for parts cause it was blown, I took measurements and researched and ended op buying the whole bike for a few hundred.. I got a great deal after seeing what parts sell for.. that bike I bought was a 2006 zx6r.. very happy and lucky I came across this bike on CL.

to check everything see how it sat plus figuring rider weight so I ordered air shocks at 14.75" center eye to center eye and I think it will be good..

Lucky you. It's ace when that sort of thing happens. Did the owner not know its value?

Be careful of the chain running over the top of the swingarm with the steeper angle.
