Fork choice?

[Rockt]

I had cbr600 front end on my with a rz500 swinarmg. This guy wanted it
He pay good money for the parts. RGVSteve did the conversion

I'm guessing the CBR forks worked well?

I am using a RGV VJ22 front end worked out grate all so using a vj21 rear end

[p51mustang]

I have ben working on this for 2 years now getting there

[Rockt]

Yeah, looking good P51.

RGV front end looks great. It makes a lot of sense to me since it's from a smaller, lighter bike.

I picked up an older ZX7 front yesterday for a good deal but it looks huge and feels heavy. The wheel is 3.5" wide, which I think might be too big.

Where did you get your VJ22 front end?

I'll also dig your carpeted workshop.

About haft the wate of the FZR stuff but it does take time to fined all this stuff shipping was a killer

[p51mustang]

Ebay just look up vj 22 front fork on there

clocks look great. how did you get the VJ22 clocks to work with RZ350 electrics?

Oh snap, that upper triple looks hella BA.

I picked up an older ZX7 USD front end but the wheel is 3.5" wide - too wide for the RZ?

[evan_calgary]

You can use whatever size wheels you want, it will just slow down the handling.

[Rockt]

Yeah, that's what I'm worried about. Going with wider, modern rubber is going to change the handling, I know, but I'd like to maintain as much of bike's nimble, quick feeling as I can. Does a 3.5" rim mean using a 120 tire or can I use a 110?

[giron]

try a 3.0"X17" from a RGV250 or a TZR250 3.0"X00X17"

Vj22 front wheels are easy to fined getting them shipped well it;s up to you
