brought mine to the dyno today to get answers 8O 8O . went pretty well. ok it was a pig to ride to it, it ran so rough at times it broke its chain, and nearly didnt get me home it run so bad but ,i mean thats not bad lol hmmmmm sounds like my bike two weeks ago ! I know it sounds daft... but.... yo...

is there/was there not a hagon rear shock in the sales section. think flatty was selling it ,never used and not big money either. :thumbup: I cant afford it just yet anyway. My bike is in biketech right now. Full service with all fluids changed and a one tooth larger rear sprocket fitted. Also chec...

I do wish to use same wheel and brakes so 93-97 it is ! replace for these forks is quite useless as it shares the same crappy design of lower triples. You can achieve better result with just upgrading your current forks. That is certainly an option, but I should think the udf from a blade would be ...

if your gona spend money on the rear, junk the shock, to put it mildly they are crap.. i should have also said, if you wana use you front wheel and discs and calipers to help keep costs down the legs from 93 to 99 fit but you must use yokes no later than 97 or the spacing will be wrong for a storm ...

easy job and cheapest way, 93 to 97 fireblade legs, yokes and handlebars, then your wheel and discs fit and away you go Thank you ! So I do actually need top and bottom yokes with the legs ! :D What Fab said.. forks, triple/yokes, handlebars but you want risers and a mudguard and then just bolt you...

Thanks a lot guys.... great information

Thank you !

What do I need to purchase if I decide to fit fireblade forks ?
Can I just buy the two fork stanchions and they will fit as a direct simple replacement ?
Or not so easy a job ?

i done the same last year on old yellow :eek2 . drained it out and it was none the worse for it :thumbup: I did it twice with my triumph ST lol Its so easy done. So easy in fact I was wondering if its perhaps worth taking the £4 halfords syphon everywhere. Its pretty small and likely to fit under s...

Filled it up with diesel :wtf: Did you realise before you finished filling up? :wtf: Hell no ! Filled it last Sunday. Started her up last night after prepping it for today. Thought my bike was knackered at first. Had no idea I had done it, as the petrol station is only half a mile from where I live...

Looks bloody superb too
Much better being a biker than owning bike bits
Looks like you built yourself a genuine head turner !

Booked it in at bike tech again grrrrr Seems head bearings are loose. Bike shakes it’s head when letting go of the bars. So have booked it in. Hopefully they have just gone slack but new head bearings otherwise. While it’s in.... full service with all fluids changed and a one tooth larger rear sproc...
