Hi @miah ,
I'm curious about the R6 conversion, first for the front...
Any news about the different offset of the triple's plates?
For what I've seen on my MT-07 the original offset is about 40 mm.
And the R6 offset is less, I think about 30 mm.
Do you've done some math about that difference? Some cad simulation?
 
Where do you've bought the R6 forks? In the picture it seems to be a brand-new set.
 
Anyway, my compliments for your project!!

What are the extra things that have to be added in order for it to be street legal? Lights, license plate holder, ..?
Also very interested in any updates btw :D

Awesome project, I'm really interested in how the R6 front end comes together. I'm thinking I might do this myself if I can ever find enough time!!

I am interested to know/see the final build as well.

Currently contemplating about swapping with 2017 FZ-09 front-end to get the USD design and radially-mounted brake calipper to complete the proper performance bike looks :D
Hopefully there is not much modification needed.

Yea,  I've been thinking about doing a street FZ07R.  I hope the OP is okay as well.  I would love to see them finish this build.

Never had its a '16. Put a rear shock on with the r6 rims. Kept all factory steering bearings. 

A few tweaks will probably still happen like re - locating the piggyback which I'll be hopefully making the bracket tonight.

as you can see its kind of in harms way.20180517_201937.thumb.jpg.d404d73ea6d623ab4dcc37f96356d354.jpghey are those the Apex clip ons? If so can you tell me if the touch the tank at full lock? And also are those extended to the highest position in your photo?

They are indeed apex clip ons, they are not at full height. Although any lower and they will hit the tank.steering stop is factory on one side and modified on the other side to match.

I ended up doing an r1 front suspension.

What all was needed for that conversion?

The way I did it a lot.

Retrospectively I would have had triples made.

One set of forks, two sets of triples.

R6 rims

No nice way to mount headlight so a new headlight.

Bunch of small custom work to mount gauges and signals.

New clip ons (I used apex because of the adjustability of them)

Bunch of other odds and ends

I'm sure there are other ways to do it read through some other threads. When I did it there weren't many people that did it in a way to be street legal as opposed to a track bike

Hey sorry it's been a LONG time since I posted here. The bike was completed shortly after my last post but I don't do forums so I forgot to post here. I am currently selling the bike for $10,000. I posted it on Facebook because I don't have enough posts on here to post it here. Here are the completed pics as of today.
