Thanks for the bump J.

BTW, anyone who has dealt with me on this site (a few of you now) knows I am an honest guy so you need not fear getting f***ed when buying.

cheers

Mikstr, me likey I've been considering a swap for a while now and I know I'd need a new fender, triples and bars, but would my SH front wheel & brakes bolt up to them or do I have to go with all RC51 parts?

Thanks,
Rick C.

Your brakes would work but the wheel would not (different rotors; same axle diameter though I think). Piece of advice though, it would be a shame to keep teh stock braking system with an othewise excellent front end as this (VTR brakes are a few steps down from RC's). I will be parting with a complete SP-2 braking system shortly too (less brake line; MC and calipers with almost new EBC HH pads). I likely won't have those available for about two weeks however (ar currently mounted on bike, will have them available as soon as my 900RR front end gets installed as I am going with a radial MC and 1998 900RR calipers).

Thank you Micky!

Okay, It's official I've taken the front end swapping plunge so anybody who wants to give me their 2 cents it's greatly appreciated! I'm planning on doing the Superbling superbars if I can figure out how to drill a straight whole...LOL!

Here is something that could be handy if you go the 929/954 upper triple route:
