That will look good and should light up the road better than the stocker.

I like it! I would just want a size comparison or something just to make sure it doesnt look too big or too little.

right now im working on making my own....only have it drawn out so far...lol
just a little thing to put in your head. but if there is allready one made for you out there, and you have the money, I would say go for it!

if your making a fighter...I would GREATLY suggest a USD gold fork swap like I have on my bike and TK.
my bikes been a fighter before I did the swap and it looked hidious...
my bikes a fighter right now WITH the gold forks and im getting compliments on how great it looks lol. I have a nickname of "The Black Night".
so if R1 forks are in your range/budget, get them!
mine are from a 99-01 r1.

I have the exact same one so if you wanna be a copy cat go right ahead bonkonhead jk its a good unit to use very easy to wire into the stock harness to use the hi and lo beam. I would get you a pic but my bike is still in pieces for my build. good luck. but just a side note, what are doing for gauges? the stock cluster wont fit behind that at all

yeah i just saw that it was in china. For gauges im running no gauges or maybe just a rpm gauge.

thanks for the info on the forks i have been looking into them. What all needs to be modified on the bike to get those forks to work. Also would i need to se different front brakes and wheel.

If you have the stock brakes then yes. Whatever forks you decide, you will need that year brakes.

well, doing a fork swwap really requires having all the front parts. (forks/both triples/clip-ons/wheel/rotors/calipers)
actually, 93'+ fzr600 calipers will work on older r6 and r1 forks.

what needs to be modded?
you need to have a fzr stem welded around the base, then turned down on a lathe, then pressed into the lower triple of the forks your swaping to.
