I’m interested but seems everyone that has done normal kit on sport bike has not been good. Only tedesled from what I hear.
Cool hand guards. What is your plan for the forks/triples?
you think it is hard to upright a tipped over dirt bike/kit... wait until you have to lift up that 400 pound plus behemoth. make sure you add some sort of lifting straps to the front end, and sides. you will need a few strong backs to upright a sportbike. Ski
Even if it doesn't work its going to sound cool as hell.

That’s really the main goal.
Plus it has a loud AF horn.
I need to put my horn back on. Super handy.
Do you already have these Cr500r forks? I only ask because I have a pair sittin here.
Are you sure about those mid 80's forks. The CR500 had 43mm forks up to 95 I think it was then they went to 46mm. The 43's likely wont be up to the task of that much weight and they flex. To be honest they are total $hit on a lightweight CR500. I have a set here I may throw on my wifes TTR230 which has even $hittier forks than the old 500 ones which is hard to believe. I swapped a set of 48mm WP forks onto my CR500, were I to do it again I'd probably just do the Showa's its much easier. If you don't know already ALL Balls has a fork/triple/bearing cross reference tool.

I've been punishing my 43mm inverted ktm forks for 3 seasons and i like the extra flex (its pretty obvious compared to 48mms) but no downside i can see. the seals don't leak ever and revalved accordingly with lots of oil work better than my new forks.
