docsimple Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Was looking at the new 2017 colors and got side-tracked to the FZ-10. The suspension seems like a serious upgrade and was thinking maybe they would fit on the 09? 2 bikes ago I had a 2007 FZ6 (the best model year of that model) and I pout some R6 forks on it. Major upgrade for less than major cash. In a year or 2 when lots of people have crashed their 10's maybe we could get a really nice upgrade on the cheap. Just thinking out loud, couldn't sleep. What do you think? 2015 Red FJ 09 2013 WR250R - little boy blue - sold 2012 DL650 V Strom - sold 2007 FZ6 - sold 1986 FJ600 - sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docsimple Posted October 13, 2016 Author Share Posted October 13, 2016 meh, just checked and the fj = 41mm vs the fz @ 43 mm. Would have to change the triple tree and who knows what else. 2015 Red FJ 09 2013 WR250R - little boy blue - sold 2012 DL650 V Strom - sold 2007 FZ6 - sold 1986 FJ600 - sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pattonme Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 that's the inner tube diameter but you're likely right, the OD of the 'gold' bits is likely to be different. But I wouldn't be surprised if you couldn't just swap guts and re-machine the fork caps to fit the FJ thread size if that was actually necessary.
