Yet another GSXR front end question. - SV650.org

03-06-12, 11:38 AM

Hi all,

I have decided to stick with my sv so i absolutely have to sort the suspension.
I have been searching like mad so i know i need to get an srad 750 triple clamp.After watching a few youtube videos it seems that with that triple clamp you can fit any forks that are 52mm at the top and i think 54mm at the bottom.I have decided to get the forks from an 03-04 gixxer thou.

My questions are,

The forks from the 03-04 thou use tokico radial mount calipers.I guess i have no choice to use the radial calipers (what a shame lol) Seeing that they will be fitted to srad triple clamp would i need to use the gixxer thou front wheel or still use an srad 750 front wheel?

secondly if i need to still use the srad front wheel due to the srad triple clamp width,would the tokico radial calipers from the thou fit ok round the srad discs and inside the wheel rim properly?

Anything else i am missing?

there's a parts compatibility chart for front end conversions floating around the internets. check it out.
