I dunno Phil. I am sure that someone will be along soon and let you know. Most things can be made to fit if you know what your doing(i dont most of the time). Suzuki forks seem to be pretty interchangeable from what i have read. found this the other day.

Bandit 12 is a good choice. You'll have to swap or modify the stem though.

Wow with the s2 . 750 Kat ! Is it a katana as in 1100 type or a pop up kat.

Irrelevant really as the forks diameter are the same and so is the stem.

the gsx750f is a good choice imo no anti dive and a straight swap

What about a front end out of the last of the right way up GSXR's. The J or K model.
If my fading memory is correct. I think the head bearings are the same and the stem length the same. A quick google would confirm it though.
Only thing to sort would be some steering stops.
Excellent forks, right way up and tend to go for reasonable money on the bay as most people want the later upside down ones.
Good luck with the project by the way and don't forget some pictures along the way.
