ctluba:
I could put this in the big arse project or the two stroke thread, but screw it, it will be a fighter when done so I will put it here.
 
1975 GT550, two stroke triple, 9000 orig miles, Absolutley perfect condition, runs strong, SPOTLESS. I dont want anybody to get sick so I wont tell you what I paid (approx 1/2 of what is worth!!!!!!!!!)
 
Plan (parts enroute)
 
06 GSXR 750 front end w/clip ons
96 GSXR rear wheel
possible GSXR swinger, maybe other option
all balls conversion bearings
dual shocks
cafe seat tail
Jemco chambers
tune and jet
new top end
 
And yes, this bike is soooo clean that I was just going to flip it and make about a grand. All the mods will be bolt on and reversible. The stock parts are wrapped up in the cellar!!!!!!!!!!!
 

 

 

 
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh NNooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
 

 
 
This is similar to the goal bike. This bike will have clip on bars.

No, the SRAD wheel will not fit!! Would look pretty sick if it did!!

that is awesome! wehre do you find these converstions for the fork swaps!

ctluba:
All Balls Racing actually has a conversion function. You put in the year make and model of your bike and they give you a list of every front end that is compatible with your bike and they sell the bearings you need to do the swap. The only thing is that they warn that the "compatibilty" only refers to the stem diameter and bearing needed. Some of the bikes listed as "compatible" may have a stem that is too short.
 
One way to avoid this is to use a front end that someone has already used in a similar build or measure your stem and then get a measurement on the stem of the front end you are buying and see if they match. The GT stem and the gixxer stem are both 9", just different diameters. Slap on the all balls bearings and bolt it up.
