They just swap into the injected models no problem but on the carbed model the top bearing is the issue. One work around is to get a really thin walled tapper roller bearing custom ground. Another is to press out the yokes and fit the SV one to the GSXR bottom triple after its built up or shimmed.

I "might" have an idea.-Given mine was one of the first sv's with a gixxer front end.
The guy has a week to sort it out so I figure=as means must

He MIGHT be able to help you.
Alternatively could I ask what race class you are in? -If its PT I can't help but if F3 You could BORROW the front end from my K7 Gixxer 600 to get you through the weekend

Thanks, I'll give Toby a try tomorrow. I'm in clubmans at the moment so the GSXR front end would be legal, but probably going overboard at the moment. Cheers for the offer tho.

What's a bet that any of the wreckers will want twice that for the stock part.

Maybe $120 US or $30 China but in NZ you probably wouldnt get much change from $100 just to buy the alloy to make it then it would start to get expensive.

And the guy said he only wanted the bottom bit.

Got a whole bike for $2000
