Yes GSXR forks are easy to install, and even more so on a K3+ aparently as you dont have to do any modifications to the headstock for the lock to work.

Should take no more than a couple of hours to do at most. Mine took a little longer but thats just because of the headstock steering lock had to be modded a tad. Realy the only odd tools that peeps dont have is the GSXR axle nut, top nut socket. The lower nuts can be done by feal with a drift if you dont have the proper castle tool. If you are using normal GSXR brake disks with the front speedo kit then its just a little solder iron to join the wires with the new sensor, the rest is easy. Hey presto its all done.

Mine has just standard RWU SRAD 600 99' forks which most people are not looking for, but if you want to maintain standard look then its the way. I need to tidy up the speedo sensor and the rest of the bike as well.
