    Just picked up my first VF500 and had a couple questions. I have been looking to see if anyone has successfully swaped out the front end of a vf500. If so, with what? I can see that there maybe clearance issues anyone get pasted these issues? Any rear tire bolt right up? Please help. If there is a link to a site let me know.

    Not complete yet, but I am working on a 41mm fork conversion using YZF600R forks, paired with F4i calipers and VFR 700/750 rotors. I am currently running CBR600F1 rims.

    This fork conversion requires a good deal of design and machine work but the benefit is that the YZF forks are a close match to the stock fork length.

    Good luck with your project and keep us posted on what you decide!
