If you are going down the zxr400 route, you need the complete front end from a H model or L model.
The H yoke has same size diameter stem to kr1/s but 2/3 mm longer
The L model has a larger diameter stem. You need to have a stem swopped from a kr1/s onto the L yoke by an engineering company. See Mr Luders pics above
The difference in forks is the L i believe are slightly larger diameter where they pass through into the yoke. The L has longer 'fingers' where the fender mounts
The L wheel is slightly wider than the H!
or do you want 5 spoke kr1s. kr1s will Need modding!
The H model is easier to install, ie no engineering required. (washer/spacer top of triple clamp) But these are getting old and the L is more common.
Dont forget to mod the lock stops!
As Jan says do a search
