wraith Posted November 14, 2017 Posted November 14, 2017 Looking at some gsxr600 srad (96-98 rwu) forks for a project, and I need to know what length they are? Was told by one person they are 775mm? Someone else told me 730mm? Both from top to center of spindle. Any help thanks. Quote
fatblokeonbandit Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 as the 750 and 600 frames are the same and the wheel and the forks are interchangeable, even though ones rwu and one usd, they must be the same length. 750 ones I had recently were 725-730mm 1 Quote
micktodd Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 Was they the same forks on the RF600 which was 750mm as where the 750 rwu forks or do what i do find some on Eblag message them to get size Quote

Something in the back of my head says the RF6 forks where 41mm diameter? Quote
micktodd Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 Yeah rf600 are 41mm but sure they are same length but who knows with suzuki . I went with gsxr 1100 w ones on mine because said they where the longest but Bandit 400 are 820mm which allows for the 17" im putting on instead of the 19" 5 minutes ago, wraith said: The gsxr750 slingshot are 730mm (rwu) the gsxr1100 slingshot are apx 760mm, don't know about the RF6 but, I fort the srad forks where 45mm diameter?

fatblokeonbandit Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 What project??? teh 600 srad are very beefy good forks, a mate raced one and when set up the thing handles and braked brilliantly, 400 bandit forks are really spindly by comparison, how much length do you need??? 1200 bandit ones are 43mm and 770 mm long but have bugger all adjust ability except spring comp.. 1 Quote

Cheeky4648 Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) Just been out tut shed. Have srad 600 front end 1997. Measures 281/2 inches or 724mm in euro speak. From ctr of spindle to top face of cap nut. Maybe a bit tired on springs soo add a few mm. Edited November 15, 2017 by Cheeky4648 1 Quote
