Default Suzuki GSX-R 1100k Slingshot

Good day guys,

I was hoping you could shed some light on a conversion i am proposing to do on my Suzuki. I would like to convert the front end to upside down shocks and need to if it is possible and has it been done before successfully? What kind of questions do i need to ask the mechanic's before i tell them to go ahead with a conversion like this.

Also, i intend putting in a bigger swing arm, one that can fit a 180 size tyre, currently i can oly fit a 160. What do i need to know about a conversion like this,is it safe?

Please feel free to contact me on my mail, jh1100@webmail.co.za

regards,
Jay
