1999 600 GSXR front end onto a 650

I currently have a line on a full 1999 600 gsxr front end, everything but the axle... for $250.

Has anyone done this swap? This won't give me the USD forks, but I will get some nice fat rotors and a light weight rim....


What do you guys think? Is it worth it or should I wait until a newer bike is parted and try to get some USD forks?

input needed befor I squeeze the trigger.

id go for it if you don't end up using it it won't be hard to get rid of or you can use it to force your self into another project.

While USD forks look cool, I don't see where they have any advantage on the street.

Well I figure 1999 suspension will offer me a 22 year update over the stock kit on the 650 so I went ahead and agreed to it, all that is left is getting him the cash and the parts to my storage unit.

I am hopping that I can get away with just a bearing swap, but I am willing to press out the stearing necks if needed...


This will be the never ending project bike... in the last 3 weeks it has gone from just get it titled to get it titled and get a tracy body on it (need to fab a seat pan) and now put a gxsr front clip in it.....
