    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.

Other front ends?

What's up Gang?

Is there anyone out there using other front ends on your gs 1100e such as, "Yamaha, Honda and Kawasaki" other than the standard GSXR?

Thanks, Supavert
 
So far ive used fireblade & R1 front ends as well as the usual gsxr ones :-)
If you are asking about fitting of a particular front end the answer will always be the same (from me at least) yes it will fit with the usual problems & messing around its just a matter of how much work you are willing or able to do
 
It would probably be easiest to stick with Suzuki stuff because a lot of the parts have remained the same over time. For instance a 2000 Bandit 1200 uses the same steering stem bearings (30X55X17 and 25X47X15) as the GS. A lot of the electrical connections have remained pretty similar over several years as well. There are several parts that swap over amongst the GSXR-RF900-Hayabusa lines too. I'm running Hayabusa front calipers on my '95 GSXR front end; Hayabusa rear caliper bolted to a GSXR caliper hanger, clamping onto an RF900 rotor; all boltons with no mods.
 
I agree with RJ, stay with all Suzuki parts if you can. I went with a 1993 GSXR 750 front end, 2001 1200 Bandit swingarm and 1993 GSXR 750 rims for my GS1100ESD/GSXR conversion and It worked out great!
 
Plus, why would you want to use "other " manufacturers sub standard parts on a perfectly good Suzuki? LOL!!! :D Ray.
