New springs or whole GSXR setup? - Page 2 - SV650.org

Am getting a bit lost, when you say SRAD yokes then you mean for RWU forks? Weren't k4/5 USD?

yorkie_chris · 20-12-12, 10:19 AM

SRAD 750 was USD.

johnnyrod · 20-12-12, 12:41 PM

Ah I had assumed you meant 600SRAD. So all 750 bits, SRAD yokes, spindle and wheel, clipons?, K4/5 forks (also 750 or 600 as well?), brakes, mudguard. Will I need one of Zoran's new bearings for this? Sorry if this is turning into a Hitler thread but I think so far I've only really heard of people using a complete front end from one model.

yes you will need one of Zorans bearings if its a curvy.

try to get TL clipons if you can. off hand i can't remember which ones though.

yorkie_chris · 20-12-12, 01:09 PM

You need to space discs out 2.5mm, there is a guy makes them i will forward you his email address.

TL1000S clipons are simlar to stock.

mudguard K4/5 one

Forks 600/750 are same

Bibio · 20-12-12, 01:19 PM

do you still need to space the discs out using the srad yokes. i thought that the srad yokes were narrower.

watch the size of discs k4-5 callipers are shorter but if you use k6> they are taller so you can use 320mm discs but the drawback is it's a nigglymare to get callipers on/off and requires the pads to be pushed back to make it happen.

yorkie_chris · 20-12-12, 01:24 PM

SRAd yokes are wider, as is wheel. Try fit it all together that is what you need if you use monobloc sumitomos though.

Bibio · 20-12-12, 01:58 PM

ahhh.. i thought they were narrower.. doh

johnnyrod · 20-12-12, 02:22 PM

Presumably k4/5 calipers and whatever size disc is on the SRAD wheel (310mm?) are good enough without the extra faff of 320mm ones?

yorkie_chris · 20-12-12, 02:44 PM

SRAD are 320.

320 are good enough, think you might be able to use 310's from SV1000 and keep stock K4/5 calipers without spacers.

Either is more than adequate stopping power.
