gsxr 750 forks in gk76a?
well...since i have the bike theres a "knocker" sound in in frontfork when in drive slowly/normal at bumpy streets. Tarmac..no problems. Thought it were the steering bearings so replaced them. Old ones had big wearingscrathes in it so has been usefull to replaced it.
But...still have the same problem. I read a lot about the bushes. typicall gk76a problem?
Ok...i can replace them but..its still a normal fork with only tensionadjustment.
So wanna put a gsxr 750 fork in it with compression, rebound and tensionadjustment. Is it an easy job to do??
Only the forks or also yokes? diameter the same? Can i use the gk76a wheel and discs or do i need the 750 wheel to? Anybody done it before?
Have searched it on greybike and here but not found anything about it???
Im really getting irritated by the noise....

Re: gsxr 750 forks in gk76a?
yea the bushes are a common problem when dealing with gixxers
i ve checked with my mechanic about that long time ago but he said its a lot modding to be done for that change.
i ve seen people saying about zx6r forks that fit right in by using either its wheel or the stock one with modded spacers.

Re: gsxr 750 forks in gk76a?
use gsxr yokes, spindle, bearings, wheel and then use 636 calipers, master cylinder and forks. then you will need a few spacers to make bits fit
