FBJ Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Hi all. If i wanted to use gsxr1000 forks, lets say K4. They are 725mm. What is the Learnerbike for poofs top yoke folk use? Stepped one? How much is it stepped?How hard is it to fit a slingshot front wheel? Need the front wheel cos dont think 6" will fit in rearThanks Quote Link to comment
Gsxrsam Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 2 inch step, use k series forks, rest just bearings and spacers..... 1 Quote Link to comment
SiBag Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Standard Mag II swing arm its hard to put a 5.5" rear in, but possible. A lot of people just ran the 4.5" rear. Doubt a 6" would fit.Iv lowered my a tad so shorter forks aren't too much of an issue for me. But generally they sit quite high with standard shock length. 1 Quote Link to comment

FBJ Posted December 2, 2015 Author Share Posted December 2, 2015 Thanks bud. The the yokes fit straight in? What did ya do about bearings Quote Link to comment
Swiss Toni Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Got new stem made (longer than std. M). Harris supplied bearing, can't remember if it was top or bottom. Not special size bearing, Harris just ream out to match. In my case it was 52mm OD - 30mm ID @ £18 plus vat. That was 2006 price. 1 Quote Link to comment
Swiss Toni Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Plus, what I was thinking of at the time was, R1 forks fit straight into the M yokes, meaning lighter front wheel, and 'Blue Spot' callipers! Quote Link to comment
