This is something I have always wanted to do with a fazer, so can I ask this... Will this front end have as much of a difference to the front end of the fazer as Devilsyam R6 shock does to the back..? And Can I get a fender extender for that R1 mudguard and is just the stock fzs wheel retained in this mod..? Where are you located and have you go some close ups of the aforementioned cosmetics etc..?

my set up uses 5PW yokes and re-sprung 5JJ internals, so much better than my modded standard forks, however because of the stiffness of the forks you have to re-tune your brain to filter out the amount of feedback you now get from the front end!
FYI it cost me £280 (and 5 months) to DIY.

Makes a huge difference to handling
You can get a fender extender for the R1 mudguard - the later FZ1 model's extender will fit
Stock wheel retained

Looks like a LsL top yoke these alone for the R1 make £100 s/h on evilbay.
Regarding fender extender early forks ie 4xv - 5jj use the 1st generation mudguard and no fender extender was ever made - 5pw forks share the same mudguard as the gen 2 so you can get a fender extender for that mudguard. Now my set up is the early forks and I was able to fit a fender extender perfect I'll put some pics up wen I get chance looks very neat.

not dissing your pricing, just saying that doing everything myself cost that much (handy having a lathe and TIG lying about).........so to just have a buy it and fit it for @£100 more and zero hassle..............

Hi
I'm guessing from the last post the front end has now been sold? If not I would be interested
The more people I meet the more I love my dogs
sorry havent been on here for a bit, front end is now sold.
Kebab 19 had a front end for sale. Would be worth dropping him a PM if you still want one.
There's now one on eBay full conversion kit including mudguard all genuine new fasteners everything, looks a nice kit buy it now is £325.
