new inverted front end on my '91?
« on: February 24, 2009, 08:28:07 AM »
my buddy has an newer suzuki with a shinwa(not sure on spelling)front end on it that he will give me. he thinks it should bolt up,triple trees and all. i really like the inverted front end on my '01. id like to have the same kind of proformance out of my '91 sence im going to be racing(desert) that one as well. anyone got any info on doing the swap?(no one throw rotten fruit at me cause its coming off a suzuki,i know,i know)
