Indeed they are but you'll need a different top head bearing

Yep, SRAD 750 is the easiest way, as well as cheap and very effective. Plus the wheels look the same as your SV rear will, which is nice, and they even come in the same colours. You can mix the parts up though, and have something like SRAD yokes, TL1000 clipons, 2002 GSXR750 forks mudguard and calipers, SRAD axle, Fireblade wheel and SP2 discs, frinstance, or I think the 04 forks with the radials also fit into the SRAD yokes with some fettling (never actually seen that one done) But SRAD really does make a lot of sense.

Remember, if you're a big lad you'll want to get the forks set up for you- the SRAD forks work well for people around the 11 stone mark on the road, but just like SV ones they only have so much of a window of good operation. It'd be a bit of a shame to do the upgrade with parts that don't work well for you.
