03 R1 fork triples vs. Gen2 triples
#1
Hi guys and gals!
I have the fork swap document here so i have looked into offsets and rake and all. BUT.....
Has anyone looked into differences in the triple trees?? I´m keen on just use the legs but what does that mean in the lower departement?
I know my TRX used spacers for wheel mount...


Cheers

Not sure what you're trying to do here.... Gen2 ??
I've done a R1 fork conversion on a Gen1 with 5PW bottom yoke + 2D1 (FZ1) top yoke.

Got a complete fork wich been on a TRX, but just want to use the legs and not involve a lot of stem changes and stuff. I guess its up to the width between the legs because lenght, rake and offset is just about the same.
Will go down to the shed later and measure the R1 width.
Theese fork legs are to good to sell with the Matris in ´em  Smile

Can´t measure the fizzer due to a frekkin storm today Smile

Centre-to-centre for the forks on the early R1's is 210mm. Same for YZF750, Fazer1000, FZ1, and FZ8.
I think the TRX850 and FZR750/1000 is 200mm. Later model FZR's (with USD forks) were 210mm.
Not 100% sure on that though. Better to double check.

Top stuff mate! So i guess that if FZ1 triples are 54/50mm ill be good just stuff the fork right in there.
Its sitting there with new rubber, new wavediscs and serviced gold spots Smile Its a TRX front wheel but got the correct spacers to use the R1 triples.
Nice weather here today at last so will be doing some measurements to be sure.


Cheers
