    so the bikes a front end off a yamaha yzf on it for a while, but i finally needed it back for the yam, so looking around ebay i found this complete front end for about 100 bux off a 1990 vfr750. much easier swap than the yzf front end cause i can switch back to the original tripples. only bummer is i loose the speedo cable, but i can just use a digital one. still gotta mount up the front fairing and paint everything but its coming along. anyone know if the vf1000 rear wheel will swap out or is the swingarm and everything different sizes?

    The VF1000F wheel will fit without modifications. Just make sure to use the 1000's caliper bracket as it's rotor is not the same size.

    Any details on the front end swap or is it pretty much a direct fit? Are there any clearance issues?
