Re: how hard would it be

i think all u need is the 600 rr invert tripple... if u have a 954 or 929 triple then u can put any 50 mm forks into it

Re: how hard would it be

we got the entire front end for a 600rr from the wheels to the triple ... just debating if its gonna be a pain in the *** or if it would actually be worth it ? cause i was gna do the 954 front but if this works on his might do the same ... prolly give it a shot this weekend .. thanks

Re: how hard would it be

Re: how hard would it be

the 929/954 forks are better anyway. Yes, the 600rr 05-06 blow fork seals, not as bad as the Suzuki though

Re: how hard would it be

EVERYONE I know , (Korno, Jerry & Jarad from barely legal, Dom) have ALL looped stoppies like someone stuck a 2x4 in the front wheel. the 600rr front end is SO touchy - the 929/954 big rotor set up rocks, the racing front end will toss you so fast over the front of that bike you won't know what hit you

Re: how hard would it be

try an R1 front end. I love it... recently blew a seal in the left fork, but I had it coming. Shitty weather so I'll fix it soon. Black forks look goooood!
