Question GSXR 600 K2 front fork swap?

Managed to get some GSXR K2 600 front forks and wondered if they can be swapped onto a Naked SV650 '99.

Would any one know what other parts I would need as I only have the fork legs

cheers in advance for any help

TLS clipons will NOT FIT!

You need some 43mm clipons.

Find a pair of SRAD6 yokes or a SRADtop and K1-3 bottom, I think offset

Yes, the rest of what you put was valid though!

Her we go again so

the front wheel you want will be from the following bikes.

GSXR 600 K1-K5
GSXR 750 Y-K5
GSXR 1000 K1-K4

However the discs you want have a greater range.

GSXR 600 1996-2003, not 2004/2005 as these are smaller diameter - 300mm
Same years with the 750

GSXR 1000 K1 or K2 only, not K3/K4 as these are 300mm

But in addition to the GSXR you can also use the discs from the Suzuki Hayabusa and the Suzuki TL1000S and R.


Chris you hardly have a spare front wheel and discs for me

i know this has been done over and over again so sorrie before i begin. iv been looking at pages and pages of gsxr swaps and the parts you need ect. but i still cant get my head around it all. looking at svrider i think i have a good sort of idea what i need.

bearings
yorkes
forks
wheel
discs
fender

then the spedo which seems to have loads of diffrent ways of doing it.

have i left anything out ?

but the only problem i have is im not sure what bike it all has to come from or year. also i dont wont to use clipons so i take it i can just drill in the top york and stick bar rasiers in.

is there any chance some one can tell me what bits i need from what bike

my bike is a 2002 curvy

Calipers also.

Use a complete SRAD front on a curvy is easiest. (96-99)

Yeah you can drill for the risers.
