I'm sure it will have been done by someone at some stage, but to my knowledge I don't think anyone has stuck any details up on here (or its predecessor).
At a guess I'd say it'll be a stem swap, but then again it may just bolt in! I've absolutely no knowledge of the rs steering stem. Most other USD front ends require a stem swap (RGV, ZXR400 etc). Anyone know offhand the length and diameter of the rs stem?.
If you're going down the route of sticking in the swing arm as well, I think you may find it's not quite as easy due to the shape of the cut out for the shocker, but I have a plan regarding this that I'm working on at the moment. Dunno if it'll work yet so keeping schtum till I know
