I'm sure the program could be modified, but there is more to it than simply changing the diameter or width of the fork tube locations. The stem is cnc lathed to use the GSXR hardware but the KZ bearings. I'm really ignorant about what goes into his triple tree programs, irishwill would be the man to ask about changing things for different front ends.
MTB, yes, including the SSSA/hardware/wheel/shock combined, those triples were still more expensive. Not alot more mind you, but more :blink: The triples were $650 shipped.
How much did that Yoshi nut cost ya? One of your nuts??? :laugh:

Does that setup have another nut under the triple for the bearings?
Or is that a big bolt threaded into the stem to lock the top triple nut (the Yosh one) after you tighten it down?

I just sent Ben a text message that you are looking for him here. When he gets a chance, I'm sure he'll be in touch. You'll have to forgive me for not handing his # out, I would only do that if he gave me permissionkajunzrex wrote: Well if anyone can get me a contact for him I'd greatly appreciate it. I think I'll post an ad in yalls classifieds and see if anyone has one lying around.
