cut & weld GSXR steering stem

Hard to tell in the pic, but the new one is 15mm longer. Between bearing surface areas. The rest is identical

Got the forks on. Now onto wheel spacers to center the wheel

Interesting. Made from same material as GSXR ones? What welding process/filler did you use??

I put a hayabusa front end on my 91 vmax, using a similar method. Pressed the original stem out of the triple, made a bushing, pressed it in the hayabusa triple, machines some material off the bottom side of the top triple, to gain in two areas. Stem length and a touch more fork adjustment.
