Hey there guys,
I recently bought a CB750F from 1982 and it will be my first build ever! I'mvery stoked and pleased!
The bike I bought has damaged front forks, thae motorcycle had a minor accident and they are slightly bent in one side.
I want to replace the front forks and rear shocks with new ones.
1. I read people flip the forks with CBR1000 or GSX-R front sides, then just have a fully custom new set up for the front steering. I wanted to ask if there are other options besides trying to find OEM ones that are more suitable for the bike and our current age? I have been reading around but where better to ask than on a specific forum for the 750!
2. If I change the front setup, what is crucial to keep an eye on?
3. Also how do I decide what suspension I use at the back? Are there certain popular options someone actually used and would advice me to pick?
I'm pretty new reading through the threads so take it easy on me, I haven't gotten through them all yet
Take care.
