After seeing some of the bikes on here i am pumped to improve mine! Just thinking of upgrading the forks on my 88 750 slingshot. Just wondering if anyone knows through experienceof forks which would fit right in with minimum fuss?

all the gsxr range of usd will fit no worries, just get the forks and triples. if you go k series then try to get the wheel aswell as the discs and axle. if you stick with usd's from 1990 through to 1995 mod gsxr then you can use your 88 mod wheel.

i have a pair of 1992 forks and triples that have had new oil put through them if you are keen. they are polished.
they just need a steering stem. the stems are the same as your 88mod stem so just press it out and install in the usd triples

just remembered that the laster w bottom triple has the steering stop in a different spot.

can be modified to work otherwise you can use 90/91 mod usd bottom triple and that will have the stops in the correct spot

$320.00 and if you send me your std lower triple clamp i will press out the stem and press it into the 92mod triples for you. might even be able to sort out your steering stop aswell
