Front end swap to USD forks (done and now with pics and write up)

[Geordi Sussex]

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.
