    FZ1 Fork conversion

    I am not sure what measurment those are! but they are not the diameter of the fork tubes where they go thru the triple clamp! R1's inverted forks are 50mm and FZ1 is 42mm trying to find out the R6s dia.? I have a 99 R1 also so I have that bike to compare parts.

    FZ1 Fork conversion

    Thank Adam! that shows a bit on R1 swaps, but that much I already knew! Still trying to find out if R6 tubes will fit FZ1 triple clamp? Does anybody know the answer? If this works its a lot less work than R1's. And don't anybody sugest the dealer! They are more clueless than we are!
