The forks...well, that's not that hard to fix. I used the forks from R1 but you can use any one youd like. Let me know when you got the frontforks and I'll tell you how to do it..or I'll fix it for you :wink:

Here's a few pic what it could look like...

How much did the R1 forks lower your front end?

Are you saying the R1 Forks were a direct bolt up?

The R1 forks is abit short...but as I cut the frame and made another swingarm it works well....and no, it's not bolt on.

I would sugest you use forks from YZF750R since they are a lill bit longer. You still have to do a few adjustment since the yokes want fit...but I'll tell you all about how to fix that later
