    will 04-05 forks from a gsxr 750 fit the 06 gsxr 1000?

    I know in a crunch, I've used my 07 1000 front forks on my 06 600 with no issues...

    The top clamp will fit (ignition is in the wrong spot) but I'd bet the lower clamp is different. I know it is between the 05-06 and 07-08 GSXR 1000.

    ok, thanks for info. once i get the 1000 forks off ill do a close compare. didnt even think og the triples possibly being different

    TWF2 2 heads are better than 1

    Both use 50/54 triples. Forks will fit your triples.

    Yes but your 06 1000 rotors will be 10mm to small

    I thought 04-05 GSXR had 300mm rotors?

    320mm, 05 & up 1000s 06 & up 600/750s were 310mm

    Correct. But fork leg and caliper is different on 06 1k and even tough it uses 310 rotors if you mix you end up with calipers to high (4mm). Gold calipers with spacers would be way to do, or cut calipers if not planing going back.
    We have charts for mixing on my forums http://www.twfracing.com/vbforums/s...-Wheel-Rotor-Sprocket-Caliper-Spacer-Matrices
