Hey guys,
I was wondering if anyone of you had grafted a XS400 Stem into R6 triple or any other USD triple? I have a xs400 I was wanting to update with some inverted forks. I know the aprrilla rs125 front end bolts up but they are hard to come by in the states. I see them on ebay in the UK and will go that route if need be but I was hoping for a USA alternative.
I know the R6 triples are aluminum and the stem of the R6 has to be pressed out? I have a lathe and could machine the Xs400 stem if need be? I would rather weld the Xs400 stem in the triple but because of the aluminum I don't think that is possible???
Just brainstorming, Please share your thoughts especially if I am way off
thanks
Chris
