Hi,

Im looking at getting some new (modern) shocks for my bike (with out anti dive valves hehe) as I need new discs and brakes would it be cheeper to grab a whole new front end?

My bike is an 85 gpz 1000rx and weighs 260kg+, I was thinking getting a hyabusa front end or at least the forks. Would it be easer to get the front end or mod the forks and the brakes to fit my gpz + buy new discs(i saw some nice discs on tm for 220 each)?

Any help would be most helpful :)

Hmm --Basicly dude anythings possibe.one problem I see is speedo drive --the busa drives off the back. The rx off the front.
If it were me What I'd concider is using the lower front end from a late model GPZ900 --17' wheel and potentially 4 pot calipers.
then just blank off the antidive unit. Give the forks a service and bingo
