GSX-R Front End Parts
 
Looking to do the swap after getting pulled out on, and my bike resulting in having bent forks amongst other little bits.

Ideally I'm after the front forks from a GSX-R600 from '00 to '03 as most things are compatible with that - however if a whole set is going for other years, I'd be happy to give them a go!

Ps. I'm only going by this (http://www.gregoryli.com/2007/06/gsx...wap-parts.html) so if you know that something is compatible that's not on that list, let me know! :)

K1-3 600 are good value, good internals but not upside down so bit cheaper.
You want whole front end from one of those.

I have an entire K7 750 front end in excellent condition currently attached to my K5 SV650. It's listed in the for sale section and I will sell the front end for £2500 and I'll throw in the rest of the SV and a bunch of spare parts for free :)

Kind offer, but I'm after repairing the front end on the cheap for the time being rather than take on a whole other bike :p

Yeah but that price is p*sstake for what you get... you need entire front end.

Any idea what reasonable price-range I should be looking for?
Just had one motorcycle breakers quote me £700 for a front end!

In my experience:-

Forks, yokes (top/bottom/stem) = £225 - £300
Wheel = £100 - £150
Discs = £100 - £150
Mudguard £35 - £50
Spindle = £10 - £15
Calipers = £60 - £95
Master cylinder £25 - £35

You'll probably also need longer lines and might be worth trying to get the ignition thrown in as well if you can as you can swap out the barrel from your SV and re-use the Gixer ignition so that it fits the top yoke properly.

If he is looking at K1-K3 stuff the SV ignition works perfectly as designed :)
