Default Lock stops for SV with GSXR front

Hi all,

While I waited for the special head bearing to arrive I put the yokes into the frame and noticed that the yokes hit the radiator on full lock, its a Curvy with a K1 GSXR600 front. How do you get round this?

Lockstop on frame and on yoke OK? With SRAD yoke it doesn't hit. You sure it is going up all the way?

If you have taper on yoke but cup in frame it might feel ok but actually not be in all way. Dust seal around stem will be right against frame.

Post a pic of it all together. I'd be surprised if it is not actually compatible since 600 headstock is quite wide.

Mine I drilled, & tapped the yoke and fitted two M8 bolts, at a later date I then added some washers to restrict the lock and some plates which do the double duty of spacering the aluminium front subframe and stops the bolts from battering the frame.
