are you sure you can press the stem out ? im pretty sure all of them are a steel yoke and the stem is welded in !!! unless its an ally yoke ?

not sure of the price ? whats that in ££££ but the more modern USD are pretty short compared to your forks so the bike will do a nose dive !!!! the forks off the GSXR1100 1990-93ish are the longest but getting harder to find in good nick.

this is one of the reasons we fit big fat wheels for modern tyres plus it looks the dogs danglies

chill out man, it was an innocent question, if you dont know it doesn't hurt to ask.

3.25 x 19 and 4.00 x 18

you won't regret it

I think the best idea would ride the bike through the summer and enjoy it, then you can gather the bits you need and do a winter project. their is a mine of info on this site to help you if you go through the project section. and don't be afraid to ask questions

then an 1100 engine and different tail unit (GS1000) and GS 750 side panels

then into this

bikes tend to evolve over time, i know my gsx750 did this is how i got it

anything is possible but depends on your skill set !!!! i dont think a gsxr or 1200 bandit wheel will fit in the swingarm as they are 180mm wide ??? maybe a bandit 600 would be better as they are 150/160mm wide. better to change the swinger as well, then theirs the offset for the chain to sort out as well as brakes. a complete front end is also a better option with thicker forks and better brakes. its all gona cost as well !!!!!

if you are rich then genuine are the way to go but im not, so i use Tourmax stuff made in Japan. never let me down yet like some of the Chinese crap !!!!!

normally they are all set about the same, but i wonder if someone has tuned them with a colour tune ?

probably running a bit on the rich side on the cooler cylinder.

I think theirs a way round it but can't remember F,B. will know. I did it the other way round MK2 switch to MK1 harness just used one wire from the switch. worked fine.

ok cool, also check the pilot hole drillings as they can get blocked, good luck

not saying this is your problem but did you adjust the idle screw ? you'd be surprised at how many people forget to adjust it to get an idle.

yeah i originally thought the offset was from wheel mount to the centre of the disc, but as time went on people where measuring from wheel mount to outer side of disc. you just end up going with the flow

interesting, if you have a flat disc then their is zero offset from the inside of the disc, so should they be measured from the wheel mount surface to the inside of the disc ?

yep its a proper air cooled

Wheres the 25mm height come from ? We are talking of 14ml of oil. That wouldn't raise the level that much.

yes thats true but in this case of 40odd year old forks your not gona feel the difference of 14ml of oil.

nope, anyone who can tell a few ml different's is talking out of their butt

your not gona tell the difference between 238ml and 252ml. go with 250ml and ride it. how the feck do you measure 252ml anyway ????
