whats the diffrance from the 1000rr and the 600rr???

Re: 1000rr front end on 600rr
 

ill take that 600rr off your hands ..i heard that both the 600rr and 1000rr both blow seals ... but the 1000rr is a bit more stable .. i love my 600rr frt end

Re: 1000rr front end on 600rr
 

The fact that the 1000rr front is better for endos plus the seals dont blow as easy and if im not mistaken i need to change my front rim also to a 1000rr and the rotors .... it makes it easier to endo the bike , better front end, i just dont know what year 1000rr fits my bike.?

Re: 1000rr front end on 600rr
 

they should all fit just got to change the races possibly .... how far are you rolling ??? i can roll 500+ on my 600rr but to each his own .

Re: 1000rr front end on 600rr
 

if i can find a 1000rr front end im willing to sell you my 600rr front .... plus the rotors being bigger then the 600rr are better when locking the brake seeing how youd also need the bigger calipers..

Re: 1000rr front end on 600rr
 

im not rolling that far fuck no i wish . . . i was just given that advice today at my shop by a fellow stunner... i had to go in and replace my fork seals.... so now i have new fork seals

Re: 1000rr front end on 600rr
 

dont swap em, theres not that big of a difference, ur not going to be any better at stoppies, if you were on a 03-04 and wanted inverted forks than yes... or if you were a rolling maniac like parrish and blowing seals then id say try it.. if ur just doin a pop a stop and not rollin shit, then switch the seals and practice :2cents

Re: 1000rr front end on 600rr
 

shim calipers for bigger rotors kinda easy im surprised you dont know this, are you changing the bushings and guides or just doing seals . love my 600rr frontend im not blowing seals

yeah, you just need spacers for the caliper mounts. The 600RR uses top mount calipers, so if you increase the rotor diameter by 20mm then you'll need 10mm spacers. Understand?

bro stright up i know i sound like a newbie but i am... but you fucking lost me... i sort of understand but yeah dont know what you mean by spacers on the caliper mounts...?

Re: 1000rr front end on 600rr
 

oh shit i think i got it... your telling me to run bigger rotors and to put spacers on the calper mounts so that the caliper works on the rotors....?

Dont do it.

No offense, but you're not going to out ride that '05 600RR front end any time soon. It's really not even an upgrade since they are both great front ends - Inverted and Radial. The 1000RR just has slightly larger tubes.

As far as blowing seals... that's the rider not the forks. Changing fork seals is pretty cheap and easy anyways. Just work on being smooth and that 600 front end will be more than enough.

Re: 1000rr front end on 600rr
 

seen it on F4i with no problems just switched triple trees/forks/brakes and wheels. Spacers "should" be the same since the triples set the wheel spacing. Use your 600RR bearings.

thanks for the tips.....

Why bother changing front end's?? I'm pretty sure there both the same and if ur having problems blowing seals why not rebuild ur stock front end? stifen up the front diffrent oil weight and so on and so forth? thats what i would do.
