Here is the complete spacer & steering stop-lock kit.
It's amazing how some of the simpler things are so rewarding - I am particularly proud of the caliper spacers.
The original GSXR caliper mount utilizes a male locator bush that is pressed into the fork mounting post: I removed these & as you can see made the caliper spacers of a double-ended design to facilitate the process.
Is the bushing on GSX-R only for locating or for taking the braking load?

So if the GSX-R Tokicos were to go on the stock 1050 fork bottoms, they will be fine without the bushing and with the bolts taking the whole load?

I don't remember if the S3 fork bottoms had a bushing or male locator of any kind. I'll have to drop by the garage later today & check.
