CBR1000RR front end swap

well finally got the major issues solved!
the report is... WOW! this is well worth
the trouble. this mod (along with a decent
rear shock) has converted my Superhawk
into a VTR1000RR!!!! it handles very close
to my old NSR250! a fair bit beefier, but
very similar!!!!
thanks to all who ventured b4 me!!!
now i can use more power!!!

that sounds great. when will you posts some pics and outline of what the issues were? would be useful to whoever is next to do this particular swap. I did an rc51 front, and penske shock and couldn't agree with you more.

Specific parts list please, and list the problems you had to sort out. Then I'll move this over to the KB and sticky it. You'll have your very own thread!

Hell, I might even give some well-earned reputation points, and I'm really stingy with those!
