Looks to be an 1100 set of forks, 6 pot Tokia's, bandit 12 wheel. The axle is different, more like an axle that screws in to a top hat like K series stuff. Left fork might have been altered if the threads were stripped, who knows?

Top one matey!, thanks .... spent ages looking at front ends last night and couldn't find any bike with that combination of wheel and forks... now I know why! Would it be fair to say that with the popularity of using Gixxer upside downies in Bandit specials e.t.c, that those front ends are hard to come by?.... also, what model(s) of Gixxer would a front end like that, been taken from?.

Thanks to you too FBoB... every little helps, as me ex used to say... often! So what do you think, is that a good choice of USD front end for an Inazuma/Bandit or is there be somethin' more suitable?. Would any of these Suzuki USD front ends fit without needing to change stems?.... or is that wishful thinkin'!?

Never done an Inazoooma, Bur I "THINK" the inazooma had the same stem as a bandit, not sure about the length, so yes a stem swop is needed... ive only done bandits and srad/tl/busa/ k series are a bit short for as the mudguard tends to hit the oil cooler under extreme braking,I have used many slingshot sets with good results, also you can use the inazuma wheel discs and calliper's with slingshot forks.

Never done an Inazoooma, Bur I "THINK" the inazooma had the same stem as a bandit I'm 99% certain that's gonna be right fella, the Inazuma is a bit of a mash-up between the Bandit (mostly) and the Teapot (less so)... with a few unique parts thrown in fer good measure!. ive only done bandits and srad/tl/busa/ k series are a bit short for as the mudguard tends to hit the oil cooler under extreme braking,I have used many slingshot sets with good results, also you can use the inazuma wheel discs and calliper's with slingshot forks. The Inazuma front end is a bit on the soft side too so could have similar probs with a shorter set-up. Sooooo, are slingy front forks and yokes rare as rockin' horse poop and what would be a good price for a set in decent shape?
