I ve tried searching but i did not see anyone fit a 1998 gsxr 750 front end onto the b400.  Is this even possible?

I did extensive research on the front end swapt. I learned that suzuki parts are highly swapable. I know that you can pretty much fit any front end on the B4 so long as you use the stock stem from the B4 triple set. You will have to make sure that the triple clamp that you use also belongs the same year forks and weel or your front wheel and rotors will not line up with the clamps. Its best you use a complete front end or you will run into the same headaches that I did. But with a bit of creativity and perseverance anything is possible. good luck. The bike looks way cool with the USD forks.

Check the length of the forks. A lot of the newer bikes have shorter forks, which is why the FAQ lists older, longer GSXR's as the best candidates for a USD swap.
