I was thinking that too, but couldn't find any pics of it in his profile. IIRC, the thread which contained the pics mentioned that the rider had gotten them for a song and liked the 'stealth' look of the RWU forks over the USD forks because they matched the feel of the bike better.

I am interested in the fork conversion, but mainly because there is a set on ebay outside Chicago that is getting ready to go off for $100US, provided no one bids on it at the last minute.

I'm currently using RaceTech Gold Valve emulators with .85kg springs in 20wt oil, so if the GSXR forks are far better than my current setup, I would like to have the added adjustability over the emu's. And I would probably be able to sell the emu's and springs on svrider.com and recoup a portion of the cost.

Apologies for the long-winded answer, but as already noted, I am "that guy".
