USD Forks that allow use of stock wheels was created by KawiConvert
As the title says, I am looking to see if anyone has found USD forks that will take the stock wheel spacing. I can turn or mill parts needed to do this. Really looking to see if such a thing exists. Also if the stock length will be kept.

Thanks,
KC

If these are for the z650 then zx9r-b usd's are about the same length. also Yam yzf750ru.
Why do you want std wheel spacing ?.
If you've got a lathe etc then there will be no problem knocking up some suitable wheel spacers.

Even so, be prepared for all sorts of headaches getting the brake caliper(s) to line up with the rotor(s).

I'd like to keep the stock rotors due to the time I put in them. I'd like to upgrade the forks to improve the handling a bit. I also don't want to upgrade the front wheel because then I would have to swap out the back wheel and I'm not up to doing a swingarm swap.

The simplest solution might be to install some new springs from Progressive Suspension, a fork brace and some new seals and oil. If they make one for your bike, a Gold Valve would be the bees knees.

Ok, that didn't work out so well, but Race Tech has goodies for your model that will make a difference.

I have a 92 ZX7 USD fork with a 18 inch police front wheel. I used a thin spacer for the discs and some sleeves on the axle nuts.
