new bike.. what front end is this?
just bought this bike. wondering what the front end is from, is it from a cbr 954rr ? im looking for bar risers for it so i need to make sure i get the right one. whats the cheapest way to put risers on there?
The farings looked like *****. the whole bike needs a paintjob clear coat failure
... so i took them off and im debating either painting them or leaving them off, so far i like the way it looks a lot better without the fairings. wonder if its possible to anodize those radiators?
If i keep em off im gunna need a new headlight, i havent seen any decent Bi-xenon headlights anywhere do they exist? i was thinking of retrofitting some to another headlight but i cant find anything that will do. Do those Halogen 55w lights put much out? i cant imagine driving with desk lamps on the front of my bike/cant be too safe, and look like ***** if you ask me.

The aerial views of the bike / really doesn't help in the identification of that front end...(Without a Shadow of a Doubt)
Yet - The lower triple is probably or looks like(IMO) a SP1/RC-51, the upper triple looks to be (IMO) a CBR929/954, The front forks (IMO)are RC-51 / yet those are the strangest front brake calper brackets.
But the three spoke wheels SCREAM CBR 929/954- So more than likely , Previous owner-just put a CBR 929/ 954 swap.. (IMO)
If you will put a set of vernier calipers on the top of the inverted forks/ and give us a measurement in MM. I may have the risers / your looking for ....

RC51 forks and calipers.... the 929/954 forks have the calipers rigidly mounted to the fork lower (whereas the RC51 uses the aluminum bracket in between). The upper "gullwing" triple clamp is from a 929 or 954. Front wheel seems to be a five-spoke, which would make it an SP2 wheel (SP1 had six)....

I concur, with Mikstr. on the brake caliper brackets and the front wheel being(SP2).. Yet those bracket aren't factory(IMO) ... I would measure those rotors.. You may have got a bike with the 330mm rotors on it ... What a nice conversion.. Like it would not stop fast enough without those..Ha Ha....
