Re: R1 front end - nickodemon - 24-12-13
I might get an 08 set then
i will need to get calipers, wheel and mudguard .... This is going to get expensive!Re: R1 front end - nickodemon - 24-12-13
Just bought a 02 - 03 lower yoke to match the lsl top yoke
Re: R1 front end - devilsyam - 24-12-13
If ya stuck for fazer stems I have a few lol
Re: R1 front end - nickodemon - 24-12-13
I could do with a stem and a justy spacer

ill dig out them over xmas
Re: R1 front end - nickodemon - 24-12-13
Nice one
. I thought it would be easier to replace the stem rather than removing mine. Hope you have a great xmas Cheers, Nick.

You all might be wondering why i am asking lots of questions. It's because laptop is broken, so doing everything with my phone! If i buy 2008 r1 front end and calipers can i use my fazer front wheel with different discs? What spacers would i need?

I don't think justy does the spacers anymore, maybe Luke is your man to knock a batch of spacers up.
Re: R1 front end - Falcon 269 - 25-12-13
I still need to check the spares bin in my cave, Nick, for a spacer. Sorry, slipped my mind - as a lot of things do these days!

Slipped my mind too, that you were going to have a look for one

yeah i can spin up spacers to justy's original but cant do the later version
no disc combo i know of yet works with original front wheel with 08 forks
later fz1 or o3 will work with r6 disc's but once you go radial the game changes
Re: R1 front end - nick crisp - 26-12-13
So what're we talking for 08 conversion? £1000-£1200 for parts? Hmmmmm.....
Re: R1 front end - nickodemon - 26-12-13
Found this Chinese company selling wheels, but not sure if original or cheap copies.. Also noticed that they are saying it will fit model years 2004 -2012. I thought the wheels would be different?

Re: R1 front end - devilsyam - 26-12-13
think the neg feedback says it all
Re: R1 front end - nick crisp - 26-12-13
Chinese cheap copies on your beloved Fazer?! Are you nuts?!!!!! Maybe on a 125 that can't do more than 70mph (but even then....). No way am I ever going to stick that kind of stuff on my bike. If I can't afford decent kit, I won't do it at all. In fact, if I had unlimited funds, I'd be more likely to spend even more. (Always wondered how much difference a set of carbon or some such wheels would make, but only from a reputable manufacturer).
Re: R1 front end - nickodemon - 26-12-13
I couldn't tell if they were genuine ones or copies, as the ad is unclear. I would never buy copies, as the thought of the front wheel breaking up while riding doesn't bare thinking about! :eek
Re: R1 front end - nickodemon - 28-12-13
I got a reply from the chinese company selling the r1 front wheel. They are NOT genuine Yamaha, so won't be touching with a barge pole! Damn. That's why they were so cheap :'( Regarding yoke offset how can i find out what each model years yoke offset is? I'm trying to find out if 02-03 is same as 07-08.
