hipringle Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 Hello, I bought a zxr750 L track bike with upside downies, one of the fork legs is bent, are there any compatible forks I can search for, cheers in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorenzo Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 There's a big thread about how you can fit a zx7r front end. Personally, I'd do something with that involves proper brakes, ZX10R, post-00 blade, R1 etc, save being lumbered with the classic 'what tokico should I use' problem.

hipringle Posted November 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 Cheers big guy but mine already has upside downies as standard unlike the earlier h model, I was just hoping maybe a zxr400 or zx9r might fit just to make choice a bit better, its just a minger I,m basically gonna fix to flog on cheap, its been rolled,flipped & dragged, probably more than once....

Ascalon Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 There isn't really any straight swap you can use for the L, it had 43mm forks, but nothing will just slot in, AFAIK. However, over redmonkey.com/7r you'll find a few guys who have put a ZX-10R front end on them. Or one guy here who put a ZZ-R14 front end on it. Have fun!

hipringle Posted November 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 I might break the twat if its gonna cost the earth to get track worthy again. Good point is the engine runs thats about it, its got spare set of wets & discs on wheels, £380 for the lot anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got someone coming to look at the GSXR on saturday, if it sells I may take you up on that. (And if not I have a 7r front end here that needs rebuilding but has the parts there to make a good set of forks, and I have the yokes ready too. That takes the L forks up to RRM spec. The 7R forks go in the L MUCH easier than in that guide for the H too, as the H has a very long very thin stem, whereas the L and 7R stems are almost identical).

lorenzo Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 Or ask conica, I might break the twat I think that's a little harsh, he's OK really, it's his parent that I blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
