I have no idea on your sled. Do you have a new suspension for it yet?

First time I saw this thread Sweet!
Hey Saw Blade I did about the same thing with my 95ZRT 800!
I used the front and rear out of my 98 ZR when I upgraded it to an 01! Only had to drill one set of holes and WOW, lighter and way better!
Nice job SEG! Can you get the front up and out a little? Mine seemed a little tippy till I did the front?

Thanks, man! Actually, it rides just like it did before, but I'd like to get the front up a little more.

Totally different. This sled has a PRS front, the 98 had ADSA.

I just bought a 97 Formula 111 600. I also have a mint 94 Formula Z 583 that I have had since it was new. I put a fat boy pipe on it and put a different rotory valve in it and it screams. I bought the 111 thinking I would sell my formula z. My back just can't take it anymore. I might be doing something wrong but from 0-80 the 111 just doesn't do it for me. That is when I started looking for posts with the suspension swap. The 111 seems to be real heavy also compared to my Z. Any imput is appreciated. If anyone thinks I am crazy to keep the Z instead of the 111 let me know that also.
