Front End conversions

[northwind]

Less than the price of an SV650 front end, if you're careful

Wheels are generally around £100, the silver ones seem quite common. It's the same wheel on all the SRAD 750s and 600s, TL1000S and R, and Hayabusas.

Discs... You can pay what you want there, starting from around £50 for scabby thin ones. I got the Braking Point ones from Ebay

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SUZUKI-GSXR-BR...QQcmdZViewItem

because I was simply sick of bidding and failing to get standard ones But I don't entirely trust them, if they were to warp tomorrow I'd not be shocked. Remember you can use any GSXR from SRAD onwards, right up until hte introduction of radial brakes, and also TL1000S or R, and any Hayabusa. I think GSX13 and 1400 too.

(that's, and don't quote me here, K1 and K2 GSXR thou, 96-2003 GSXR 750, 97-2004 GSXR 600, any TL or Busa. I could be off by a year or so, but they all look basically the same)

Forks, yokes and brakes can vary a lot. Mine were £50 the yokes, and around £150 for the forks and calipers. Be careful here, very easy to get duff ones. RWU 600s will be cheaper, usually. If you go 600, get later ones, they're better- but I can't remember which years, Rob#70 knows though.

Think that's about it

I paid
£310 for 750K5 forks, yokes, spindle and calipers
£100 for TL1000 Dymag front wheel
£50 for a Hayabusa front wheel
£100 for 2 sets of 300mm discs OE

It pays to be patient with ebay and keep to your maximums, but then again got nearly £900 for the std stuff off the bike so I blew the difference on woodcraft clip-ons, brembo master etc
