    2004 GSXR750 front end on '82 GS1000?

    I inherited my brother's '78 GS1000 that I'm converting into a track-only drag racer. I'm looking for a GSXR front end for it, and I saw a few 2004's on Ebay. Anyone know if the bearings work with the GS head? What's the cutoff on years before I have to get to a machine shop to get it to work?

    GSXR fork swap

    Hello
    I'm not sure about the cutoff yr but what u need to check for is the upper and lower bearings. The GS models use tapered roller bearings, so any Suzuki fork with tapered bearings shoud work. Just remember that one other option is to have the stering stem pressed out of the GS tripple and repace the GSXR with the GS stem.
    try sooking in the other form sections with other more experienced wrenches.
    Best of luck, Archie
