GSXR Triples .. WTB

[latheboy]

Anyone got a set of K1->K8 triple clamps hanging around that they can part with??? I've got a front end minus the clamps and kinda need them...

[TurboKat]

Don't you have access to a full machine shop [?]
Make 'em ya Pussy !
If you need any tips, let me know ;)

[Deano]

do you want drawings for some billet jobbies?

[TurboKat]

I can even get you the Billets cheap... any more excuses Lameboy?

[Gix11]

I thnik I have some K5 ones mate? If you're keen I can find out. What diametre do they need to be?

[Deano]

50mm top 54 bottom i think mate. 207mm centre to centre with a 32mm offset to the steering stem

[Stocky]

If you make them from Billet you can pull the offset back to 30mm , if it's for a streetfighter though I'd push them out to 34mm.

I've got some Yoshimura stems you could use in a billet clamp set to make adjustable ones if you want to get flash and save making the stem etc.

[latheboy]

Yes im going to make my own but i havn't got a design that i like yet ... i must have 10 different models in solidworks but none of then are screaming to be made....
It would be great for you to come to MY work shop and show ME how to use a milling machine TK, ;)could you also show me how to lathe stuff down on a turning maching[:o)]
Could i have a look at your drawings Deano?
If you could have a look that would be great Boss, Ø's are as Deano said..
Ill get some overall dim. and you can get me a quote TK .. 6061Al.

Stocky ... Why would the offset be better if its 34mm [?] I am smart and stuff like, but me no undies

[latheboy]

Oh ... I just found out i wont be getting the front wheel with the front end ... Boooo!!!! So if there's a wheel hanging around in your shed that you dont need please tell me....

[Gix11]

Ben, what's the go mate? Can you fill in the gaps?

[Deano]

you can use your original wheel mate. just a bit of fucking around with the disc spacing and caliper adapter plates

No you have Busa ones.

[Stocky]

Yeh when you take a bunch of wright off the bike and sit upright the steering will be a little more stable etc at 34mm of offset.

It's a "trail" thing that's not easy to explain in 10 words or less on the net

To me (being the mega racer that i am and having won every title there will ever be) the bike fells quit stable as it is .... stearing dampener proberly helps alot ...
try for 12 words or less if you cant do 10[:o)]

Ah, yes, that's right. But hang on, they are sleeved and holding GSXR K5 forks. Any good with the sleeves? ....or have they gone Ben. Can you tell I haven't seen them yet Ivan?

[latheboy]

Bahaha .. you need to get out to see your bike more .... Not sure about sleeves .. I know where there is a set i can borrow but i think im just gonna have to pull my head in and come up with a design and make some swarf .. Thanks anyway dwag

[Stocky]

I know a guy who has a stock lower clamp with the steering damper tab removed and the whole thing cleaned up ,then 2 pack blacked.
He's got a ABM top clamp with fat bar mounts to match (also black)

If that's what you'd like I'll pass on this thread to him ?

[hooligan]

I've got K3 forks in '91 model yokes. Works fine for me.

[latheboy]

Thanks stocky but ill pass .. im gonna make some clamps and be done with it..
I had thought of using the ones i've got but they are abit shitty .. 90 front end is in it now

[TurboKat]

Finished 'em yet [?]

[latheboy]

Almost;)
