    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I,ve been trying to absorb all the rules applying to a gsxr swap,but it seems like they are always changing.I read that a 2000 gsxr front end was put on a 82 1100e.I thought this was not possible.I think they mentioned pressing the stem out of the triple and replacing it with the stock one.Larry, please elaborate.Also,if a 954 triple works,...how about a whole front end and wheels .I'm tired of looking for old gsxr stuff.If I'm going to update the front end ,why not go as late model as possible?I mean second gen gsxr is still 15 years old.any news?
 
I've seen 2k and up stuff used by people here. If you stick to 750 front ends they are 50mm and can be used in the 954 triple. You have two options with the 954 triples. They came with tapered and roller bearings depending on the year. Either get one that used tapered bearings or swicth the neck races to use the rollers.

You could use a complete 954 front end but if you do you may have to adapt parts to use a GSXR wheel or you will have to use the 954 wheel.
 
From what I understand the newest front ends are too short to work in a GS chassis. You'll lose a lot of ground clearance and put your exhaust at risk.
