I used a k7 gsxr 1000 front end. More or less a straight bolt on. You just need to fab a bracket for the speed and stick some magnets in the rotors.

gsxr 600/750 k6/k7 plug and play, you'll lose the steering lock though... otherwise k4/k5 (600/750) and will fit straight on, of course you'll need a hall sensor with magnets for the speedo and brackets if you have the N for the headlamps..

I have used a Yamaha R1 front end and GSXR yokes, well I say I. What I actually mean is that the wonderful Mr YC has had to endure my choices of using parts that others tend to avoid and he has modified and machined the parts so that they do fit. I am still to get my filthy 'arris North to have it all fitted though and cannot wait. :D

You'll need one of these now though to balance it all out.
