GSXR SRAD is easiest non-curvy fork into a curvy... As close to a straight bolt-in as it gets really, you need to sort out the speedo and do something about the top bearing, but both are tried and tested, a search will get you good results. You can muck about with different years of forks in the SRAD yokes like I did, but the SRAD forks are pretty good as is, if they're in good shape.
