No problems with the unit so far! :grin:

Next step is mounting it to the Busa Front Forks!




Dumb question, will those improve handling? Or do they just lower the bike?

From what I have heard from others who have done the conversion yes! They say there is slightly quicker steering but over all improved ride. I guess I will find out as soon as gather a few more parts.

hijacking the thread!  :bandit: just for a second, mongo are you planing to use the stock bandit wheel in your forks? Just curious my bike is sitting with some hyabusa forks leaning on it too right now (fell figuratively the forks are on the couch and the bike is in the living room  :yikes:) Hope to get the conversion done soon, so am just curious how you plan to do it or how it works/ed out.

I picked up a Busa wheel off Ebay and stripped the paint to match the rear today! The Galfer rotors are a tease they came off a ZRX to bad they wont fit but the USPS droped off a set of TL 1000 rotors today and I picked up a set of new bearings and seals for a little added insurance!

I think I'll put her up on the lift tomorrow and start tearing it apart I still need to machine the bushing for the upper triple to accept the stem but that's not a big deal! I'll post up the build in another thread!
