93 gsxr usd 750 forks?

[first timer]

are these the forks to swap in with the length i need, or are they to short, are the 93/92 gsxr 1100 forks the holy grail forks? it's for my 78 gs1000

I used the 93 GSXR600 forks. The 600 and 750 had the clip on bars under the top triple tree. the 1100 forks clip on's were on top of the triple tree and I think shorter, Don't know that for fact though. Don't know if it matters but the 93 600 USD forks work like a champ on my 81 GS1100E.

Hi First Timer, the GSXR1100 L, M & N (90-92) extended are 745mm from the top of the fork (not counting adjuster assembly) to the axle centre and the WP/R/S 1100 are a little longer at 770mm to accomodate for the top mounted clipons. Note that the GSXR 750 and 1100 USD outers are different diameters. e.g the 750 underslung clipons will not fit on the 1100 legs and the top yokes are different diameters. Not sure if the 750 clipons have enough meat to machine bigger. I am not sure about your GS, but to maintain standard ride height for my Katana 1100 I had to extend a set of WP/R/S 1100 legs by 80mm. Don't forget to allow for the smaller diameter front wheel and the much lower profile. I hope this helps.

the 1100's are 52mm top and 56mm bottom.

a set of zx clipons will fit so you can mount them under the top triple. I had a set of 1100's and zx cllpons on my first kat.

I have a set of 92 1100 forks here and they are 29.5 inches. I believe the 95 1100's were the longest.
