    Hey guys, been a long time…… just bought a 893cc 94 Blade fighter (total hound that looks like it’s been used as a boat anchor :D, modified a Ducati 1198 subframe to take the seat unit, VFR750 rear arm (not yet fitted) and 954 Blade forks (waiting for their imminent arrival) and here’s where I need the advice.
    Apparently 1000RR forks fit but not sure up until which year? Also do the brake discs fit as the 954 uses 330mm discs.
    Anyone have any advice? @Yorkshire Tyke any ideas?
    Next question, is @Lozzy still about? Still got those one piece RST leathers……still can’t get into them!:p

    Hi @exuptoy long time indeed and good to hear you are still on two wheels - can’t help with the bike questions but I’m sure someone will be along. @Lozzy is very much still on the forum :)

    Yeah, part ex’d the RR9 for a Street Triple R which I swapped for a 675 Daytona then bought a new MT10 which I kept for 4 years. Loved it, but still say the 1000RR is still up there as one of the best bikes I’ve owned, second only to the MT-10 with the 675 Tona pulling up 3rd place.

    I’ve had them on once or twice but these days I look like toothpaste that’s been squeezed back into the tube!:D:D

    Panic over, I’ve sourced a 04-07 1000RR rim with discs. Have to collect from Reading next week.
