| Re: looking for feedback on my 88 hurricane 1000F project Given totally free choice, I'd go with late GSXR parts.
I'd replace the entire frontend which should be pretty easy. That way you don't have to worry about modifying caliper mounts or axle spacers, although you'd probably need to do something with the steering stem. Given the height of the bike though I'd expect you'd need fairly long fork tubes. How long are your forks from axle centre to top of the top clamp?
Modern forks are around 700mm which are likely to be too short. Being such a wide engine I don't think you'd want to run shorter forks or you'll lose cornering clearance.
Measure the width of your swingarm pivot and the length from axle centre to pivot centre and see what else might fit.
Ideally, go and spend a day in a wreckers yard measuring stuff up. Or you can look around dealers for measurements and ideas.
