HI - I new here but I used to have a 74 TX650A (have a bunch of Honda CB750K's right now). Anywho ............

I'm looking to build a 650 dual sport and I'd like to know how big a problem am I going to run into fitting a 98 to 02 YZ400F front end? If someone has a better idea for a front end I'm open to ideas.

I just can't afford a KTM Adventure 950 right now Laughing Thanks In Advance for any help!

You'll most likely need to have the XS steering stem pressed into the FZ lower triple tree as they changed the bearings and stem from 89 and up I believe..........Jack
