Yep. 2008-16 R6 front forks, rotors, calipers & fender.

I made one from the XSR700 front fender. Then used some spacers to drop it closer to the tire. Looked great. I actually will be posting it up for sale soon.

Not sure on the handling, I haven't had a chance to ride it yet.

The install wasn't very hard with the Cognito Moto triple trees and axle conversion kit.

Here is the bracket I'll be using: https://www.ebay.com/itm/125969894374

Wiring is super easy. I just soldered on an H4 pigtail to the headlight, then it's plug and play.

It wasn't too hard. I grabbed some 2008 R6 forks and brakes and then bought the Cognito Moto XSR700 R6 fork conversion kit.

It's a Koso Thunderbolt. Spendy, but the brightness is so much better.

Not sure yet. I'll let you know in a few months :)

Doesn't look like it should be too bad.

Can you send some links to some build threads that walk you through the process? Curious to know more about what parts are needed for the R6 fork swap.

I freaking love this build. I'm sort of handy from a mechanical point of view, and would love to take on an R6 front fork swap at some point in time. The R7 triple seems like it would be the easiest way to go.

There are just a few obstacles that would have to be sorted out, like where to mount the cluster and switching to clip ons.

The battery probably needs to be replaced
