f4i front end conversion question
i was thinking of puting a 929 front end on the f4i, but i really want to run some 0 degree clipons on top of the triple. with the f4i fork a little over a inch longer than the 929 forks, and then the triple on top, i would have to lower the front end 2-2 1/2 inches.
with that in mind, the f4i is soon to be my street and stunt bike (only up 8). with the 929 conversion and lowered a little over two inches will this mess up the way the bike handle for twisties, speed, and general streetriding?? Thanks for any input

I run a 929 front end with fi clip on on top of the triple. The tire doesn't hit the radiator. Tons a peeps run it like this, and i haven't heard of anyone hittin the radiator.
I suck at stoppies, so can't give ya any advice there.
I sometime run a fender. The fender just barely bottoms out and taps the upper. I have heard of people destroying uppers runnin it like this, so I choose to run no fender most of the time.
As far as handling goes.... its a stunt bike...with a cage. Im not about to go rail any twisties on it.
