Forks

[Pop-Kat]

Hard to find anything as long as the std 1100 kat forks, (around 820mm) the 750J fork you have is a very short fork, 1100K is longer but hard to get hold of, teapot (gsx600/750) forks are longer, poss 775mm ?, you can lose a good 20mm and hardly notice due to going from a 19" wheel to a 17", then a 25mm drop is what you'd get with 775mm forks. Ok for a road bike but would be far too low for track work. how are you going to use the standard yokes ?, std holes are 37mm GSXR750J 41mm. GSXR yokes pretty much go straight in though. If you do a stem swap then forks and yokes from a 1200 Bandit will work.

Hi Chris. Glad you got both running. I have bandit 1200 forks in my turbo Kat with the 17 " wheel looks great. The wife has bandit 1200 forks in her kat with a 18" gsxr1100j wheel fitted. Rides and looks right. You'd be better of pressing out the kat stem and fitting it into bandit yokes

Thanks for the replies to answer the yoke question I was going to machine out the stock yokes to 41mm

Not enough meat on them to do that safely, imo.

Sell the 750J forks and buy a 1200 Bandit front end, less work in a stem swap than machining

Also: B12 forks should be cheap enough as these bikes have been top sellers through many years.

Suzuki RF600 use 41mm forks and have clip ons as standard. A lot cheaper than Bandit 1200 yokes which are quite expensive on the bay of eveil. Dont know what work is needed to get the RF yokes to fit a Kat frame tho.......................

RF900 use 43mm forks!
