GSXR Forks - where to buy secondhand

[imdying]

Might have a use for a GSXR front end, not sure where the best place in NZ is to get something like that.

This guy seems alright: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Motorbikes/Parts-accessories/Suspension/auction-104658501.htm?p=1
Anyone dealt with him?

Any other ideas on where a good place to get a GSXR front end would be? I'm after something along the lines of (all except wheel and rotors):
- GSXR1000K4
- GSXR600K5
- GSXR1000K6 forks and brakes with K4 triple clamps

The American Ebay site has a few, I figure the more 'commercial' traders that utilise it might be the way to go? Given the dollar, might be worth the risk of not quite getting what I paid for?

/edit: Pretty flexible. A GSXR1000K2 front end would suit me dandy :yes:

Definitely not leaving my bike in your garage again when I go back to Japan.

Ooooh bra, dun joo trust meeeeee???

[Cajun]

if i would you i would go something with radial mounted brakes, but ebay best cheapest opinion i would guess now days

They come up from time to time on TLZONE.net......some nice SVs on there to.

[imdying]

There sure are some nice bikes on there :yes:

/edit: Who's is that shitter that one TLOTM in March :lol: Top effort :D :D :D

[98tls]

Ha ha..........nobody was more surprised than me..........you really do need to join up there and post up some pics of your bike......there a top bunch and they sure would enjoy seeing your bike..............

Always nice to have the hardwork appreciated.

I really should visit more model specific forums... somewhere more generic like KB, you just don't see the crazy guys efforts... something about the model specific forums that turns regular guys into modding monsters!

Still mulling over the front end... as Cajun says, I really want a radial front end... not that it would matter too much, but if you're gonna bling, you might as bling all out. At least my project management skills are getting a work out, I'm juggling a few balls at once at the moment. I've had some small success on my plug building... shouldn't take tooo long before I can make a mold off it, and start popping parts out :yes:

[98tls]

In the meantime go post up some pics on TLZONE............show em what us Kiwis can do........:yes:

[98tls]

Theres a raffle for these over there at the moment...........:shit:

[imdying]

Yes, yes I must have those...

-Dude Ive dealt with Norm a few times for various bits --Top bloke and good service --He buys the stock front ends off of bikes the yanks convert to race bikes

[imdying]

Yep, had a yarn with him, seems to be the way forward for me alright :yes: Just need to decide which bits, pretty sure a GSXR1000K4 front end would be the win, less front wheel and discs.
