Default ZXR front end for SV ?

I know the answer (well some of them anyway) will be, dont bother use an srad instead, but has anyone any idea if it is really too big a job to fit a ZXR7 front end on an SV, reason I ask is there is one going cheap on flea bay (suppose I have blown it now, if it,s any good it will have gone next time I look) but any feedback at all on this one appreciated, I fancy something different and it looks good, and most of all it,s cheap

Dude, you can make anything fit anything with enough money or engineering know how. Question is , does the swap give you what you want? If yes, then go for it.

Just did the SRAD conversion on my curvey and honestly, although I worried about lots of details prior to starting, the fitment was pretty strightforward. Results are definately worth it. Standard sv suspension is rubbish!

Regards

Rich

SRAD yokes are going to be easier most likely as they're a known quantity. Then see what the spacings like and if an SRAD or SV spindle can fit into thr ZXR yokes if needs be.

You can also get the forks revalved if you need to.
