TL1000S front end

Beitrag von mlivkovich »

Just finished my project! I put tl1000s front end on my GSX. Springs are too soft so I ordered new stiffer ones. Also, my plan is to fabricate fork extensions to maintain standard front end height.

TL1000S forks are 732 mm long but front end is still sitting too low. It's 7 cm shorter. I will machine extensions to maintain standard front end height.
I lowered footpegs 3 cm and put 4-1 exhaust collector but still using right OEM exhaust can

I measured 800mm each fork leg off the bike, on work bench. 780mm is on sidestand? I use 10w fork oil in both USD and standard ones.

I changed the front wheel on my b-king from 17 to 18 inches.

The problem was now that the front Wheel has contact with the cooler when its full weight loaded

we used 10w oil and changed the air cushion in the fork
