GoldCoast motorcycle wreckers had a 89 750 front end a while back. i know cause i bought the frame off them. let me know if you want me to find out more.
I might have the forks, triple clamps, clip ons and mudguard in the near future. Got to get some new triple clamps made up first and I'm not the speediest geezer at getting things done......
got complete set up wheel breaks triple claps, clipon etc of 88 gixxer if u intrested

gix, what you doing for triple clamps?
i am looking at getting something made and was thinking about something like the yokes that this guy builds. they look great but are a bit rich.

Hey Deano, 125 pound converts to $295, Austreetfighter have a top yoke on their site for $475. I haven't seen either except on the web, but for a hand made item that does not seem to bad, what do think. I wouldn't mind changing my top yoke as it was butchered by previous owner.
Actually Gibbo 125 pounds doesn't include risers,ignition key bracket,anodizing/ polishing & postage from the UK, so really $600- $650 would be closer to the mark. Makes the AU Streetfighter units look pretty reasonable I think.
Ah, the fine print, shoulda checked the fine print. Thanks Ben.
i have a few customers that have CNC's and have spoken to them about this and they believe that you should be able to replicate something similar to the broscombe yokes for about $500 (justa guess) for top and bottom yokes. (cheaper if more than 1 made at a time)
I was thinking if there was a few of you guyes intrested then i would getting drawing on the Autocad and come up with something, get it quoted and do a small run of them.
they would include risers and be ready to polish, anodise or bolt on.
Gibbo - as my ign barrel is down on the side of the bike above the oil fill cap i don't use the hole for the ign barrel and the female threads that is used to hold the barrel in actually hold my headlight and instrument brackets on.
So what i am looking for is something without provisions for ign barrel on the triple clamp. Other wise I would have an Austreetfighter one in an instant.
So who is keen on this? - top yokes, bottom yokes or both?
Deano, that sounds pretty good, I'd be interested for sure. Chasing a set of usd forks at the moment, be nice to have some some good yokes to show off. Cheers.
Deano. I think my answer lies with Exben. He's going to do me up a complete triple tree to convert my standard forks to upside downers - isn't that right Ben? I'm back by the way mate, but my head isn't yet. As soon as it is I'll be in touch........
sounds like i should be talking to Exben bout machining up some triples?
When ever your ready Gix,Deano if you can get custom machined triples with risers for $500 I'd say jump at it,because mine start at $1200 for a 40mm bottom, 25mm top, with risers & polished using an existing stem.
no worries Exben. we will see how accurate the guesstimate was when I get around to drawing them up. $1200 could be a bargin!
but do u know of any front ends for my old 84 GSX EFE triple clamps and are not a major worry as i have access to a machine shop!
Deano - sounds like you can use CAD. I work with a guy who used to be a mechanical drafter drawing stuff up for import into CNC. I can get him to look at it if needed?
no worries speeddemon will be in touch once drawn up.
you could do this... costed me 160 ish bucks in parts and a little time.
bar clamps were 79.95
h/bars- 59.95
bar end weights 19.95
longer bolts 3.20
total- 162.85
time- 2hrs incl dissasembly of the gsxf front end to fit up the gsxr one instead.
cheers.joe.
