TL-R front end swap?
« on: September 22, 2007, 12:24:00 AM »
Just wanted to double-check that a TL-R front end would fit OK on the B400 (swap the steering stem, etc etc blah blah blah).

Comments?

Don't know about external dimensions, but they're different internally than the SRAD bikes as they have a 25mm cartridge (which is all the rage anymore, though I don't know why...)

Not that is has anything to do with if they'll fit, just that they aren't the Same as the SRAD forks.

I thought they were on the short side in overall length, just like the Hayabsa and late model GSXRs.
