   * This mod will allow you to use any year or make fork setup on your FZR
+  * By using a threaded rod in 1/2inch or 5/8inch you are able to use any
+year model or make for this build. My first set of bushings were single sided
+and r6 stem was chopped to use for taking up the slack in the upper and lower
+triple holes.
+  * We now have come up with a design to use a double ended bushing on the top
+and bottom of the triple and bearings. It will serve as taking up slack in the triples
+and providing a place for the bearings to rest on. Oem bearings are retained in this
+mod.
+  * The 1st set of bushings were made from 6061 Aluminum Rod. These are still in place
+and used in my bike. I will give a 500 mile and 1000 mile inspection this summer.
+ We have now changed to Steel Double Sided bushings giving it a more solid fit for
+ added security and tolerances.
+  * I want to thank (Rob) CAD600 for everything on this build. Together we will be
+able to provide the bushings for any fork build you may have.
+  * I have purchased my own metal lathe and will be producing bushings for this mod.
+If you need anything made let one of us know. Thanks!8-)

   * The OEM stem was cut at the bottom triple and used for a bushing
   * I also cut the OEM stem at the top below both sets of threads and used at the top
-  * In the future we will be using a double ended bushing for top and bottom.
