I know I haven't been on the forums for long, but I'm stuck and I need help.

I have the CB1300 and I'm wanting to streetfighter it, as you know. I'm looking to pull the fairing off and that means, I need new lights and a new dash. BUTI'm going, or want, to replace the front end with 08/09 Fireblade USD Forks and triple clamp.

Does anyone know if this will improve or degrade the handling of the bike and if/where I can get a dash? (Speedo/Techo/neutral) kinda thing?

Thanks in advance.

All good no harm in asking mate..;) that fork setup would look great on a CB13, fork lengths maybe an issue
for your steering speed ride height etc, but if they did it for Suzuka 8 hour and it worked for them cant see why it wouldnt for you..

explore and you shall find wonders. heres guage options for you.

From what I've measured I should be alright to do it, but I'm concerned about having to much on steering on the front end. Thank you Gritzy.

I've spoken to Extreme Creations (Brilliant experience btw). Looks like I'll be sending the bike to Sydney for a month.
