GSXR Triple tree

OK, so I spent the morning reading about fork swaps.
RC51, easy.
954, easy
CBR1000RR, easy with 1000RR triples or 954
GSXR 600/750/1000, easy with 954 triples, or some other combos, RC/954, 954/929.....
And a few others

Here's my question, Can the GSXR 600 triples be used?

A friend in my Motorcycle Club has a complete GSXR front end. Triples, forks, calipers, wheel and rotors.

Everyone is looking for the all in one purchase. If it can't be done, who has a set of 954 triples that they want to sell in the next month or two?

Thanks.

Eric, if you can get a good deal on the front end get it done and pickup the triples (954/929/RC51) as they come available on flebay or speedzilla...you'll be glad you did!

SlowHAWK is an unknown quantity at this point
I think one issue for the GSXR triples will be finding bearings that fit... you might just wanna call All ***** Racing tech line... they can tell you if they make a bearing for your application (Gxsr triple/Hawk frame)... they are really pretty helpful guys.

Not sure if there will be other issues, but the bearigns will definitly be one you'd need to address regardless.
