No, there is no reason to install the front end of a 87/88 FZR1000 or 750, so no one has done it.
The 87/88 FZR's use the same inferior damper rod forks, same flexy 41mm dia. fork tubes and 15mm axle as our oem FJ's.
They only redeeming value of the 87/88 FZR front end is the 17" x 3.5" rim, that's it...
If you do go to the trouble a front end swap *at the very least get cartridge forks* they are tunable and if you stay with conventional forks, get the stronger 42mm dia. fork tubes and stiffer 17mm dia. axle (along with a 3.5"x 17" front rim and 320mm rotors)
....always remembering.....FJ's with USD forks gets the chicks....![]()
Agreed, got 750R USD fork already. Now looking for wheel and fender......
