Thanks, Katman- considering your project, I surely take that as a compliment.
Don't forget guys, the 1998 and newer Katana 600/750's use the 3.5/4.5 wheel combo and are a lot easier to find and less expensive than late 1980's GSXR parts. My front end swap cost nothing in parts- I found a complete rolling chasis from a 1993 Kat 750 for $300. After selling the instrument cluster, rear subframe, and misc pieces on ebay, I broke even. The 41mm forks, 17in front, and floating discs will be a definite improvement over stock. I am going to use the 1993 17x3in front with a seperatly purchased 2001 17x4.5in rear, both stock Kat 750 parts. The older pre-98 Kat wheels (17x3.0 front and 17x3.5 rear) should be an easy upgrade for GS750/1000/1100. Weight saving alone would warrant the swap. Ride On, Ed.
