Here we are so far then... GSXR750 K2 front end in 675 rear wheel and caliper mocked up, will make up some spacers soon and get a bracket for the caliper slider. (Will do a full write up on this when it’s done) more bits on the way.

Cheers, I’ve got a round spoke 675 wheel now but I will need a spare for wets at some point! was wondering if the 1100 swingarm was a touch longer. 675 wheel is an easy fit by the looks of it. It’s narrower and is 20mm axle so with a couple of spacers it can be central and with around 4mm machined off the sprocket Carrier You get the chain line. I think you can run a 520 sprocket off a 250 Kawasaki which has a 1mm offset too, more research to be done on that when I find an engine! see post below for updates!

Thanks pal, i have my race bike prepped and ready to go just in case but i cant see it happening at this rate!

The ACU mountain licence requires 6 signatures, at least 3 from Jan 2020, so it would be possible but only if the ACU lift the restriction on short circuit events very soon. I doubt the ACU will waiver the licence requirement as thats part of the insurance policy. Im pretty sure i saw a Manx ruling had been put in place that will see all events postponed until october 2020, i very much doubt its going to run, hence spending my entry fees on GSXR bits

I have my entry in for the Manx GP and so far thats the only race that hasnt been cancelled... Yet...

Hello all. After most of my research seems to come from this site anyway I thought I may as well join up! With most of my race season cancelled i thought I would build something ready for next season. whilst the ZXR750 is the more popular and competitive choice, i have always loved my old school suzukis and have a particular soft spot for the Yoshimura F1 bikes of the early nineties so im planning on building a bit of a replica with a view to race it at Olivers Mount and the Classic TT I have started with a 1992 W frame and have a swingarm + linkage on the way as well as a K5 rear shock. The plan is to put a K2 750 front end on so i have a bottom yoke on the way. My research leads me to believe that the k2 bottom taper bearing will fit straight in and that I should just need a 32906 top bearing. Can anyone confirm or advise? I have also opted to use a triumph 675 rear wheel so if anyone who has done the swap could point me in the right direction that would be super. Pics on the way Cheers Andy
