I had the lower parts of the forks milled out so I can use the blue do calipers
This also allowed me to use the standard fazer brake system Apparently the blue dots are better than the 6 pots from the yzf http://www.exup1000.co.uk/workshop/calipers.htm 29

Ok. A quick wrote up how the how to
Fitting a yzf750 from end is a relatively simple swap The from end I got didn't have a stem in it so I'm not sure if it is direct bolt on job But I bought a lower fzs600 yoke and stem off eBay I had it pressed out and pressed into the yzf bottom yokes Both arms are the same size so unlike R1 conversions no additional fabrication is required It's also a great time to change your head bearings If you have never changed head bearings it's a "fun" thing to do The yzf dose not have risers so the yokes needs to be drilled But as the ignition is off set you need to make sure that the holes are far enough away from the ignition housing that you can get the nut on There is also a little tab that fouls on the left lock So it needs to be ground off (prob best to do this then the front end is off That's pritty much it Good luck with your USD conversion. 30

It was put on a dyno but that was done before I got her The filters and stuby (cut down can) have a great howl to them 37

My advice
Watch YouTube Find somone what can watch you do it as it's not as easy as it looks Get the tools And have fun I just picked up a angle grinder. Mops and compound I'll be getting a 2nd hand swingarm and polishing that for practice If it works I'll be installing that Then I'll polish the one that's on my bike to resell it and make some money back Failing that find a company to do it 50
