Workin from the shed
I've been hearing around the web that an fzr600 front end can be swapped to the XS.
I'm looking into the idea and am wondering if it's possible? I have a buddy who has a front end that he says is in good condition and I can just have. he also has a set of 86 xj600 wheels. ( if that applys at all?)
I have a 1980 xs650G - it maybe the special II (not sure)
I have 34mm forks and 19" spoke front wheel.
I know the rotors match up but I don't know the years that are swappable, for either bike.
I figure someone has tried it before because I have seen some evidence on the web.I'm looking for any info on the subject and the pro's and cons to it.
Even though I'm a little wet behind the ears I do know my XS fairly well now after the last year of building, which was... well a little......hmm, whats the word? Interesting
Needles to say I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty on her
Thanks for any info on the idea
