Yep, you had me wondering a little there! Smile Sorry I did misunderstand the post.

I think you will need a new stem machined and have that pressed into the ZXR forks. The fork angle will remain the same as the NSR, as the angle is built into the headstock. To keep the geometry similar you will need to make sure the axle is the same distance from the triple clamps, but you can't account for Kawasaki's offset of the forks unless you use custom made triples.

Bringing the forks up or down through the clamps will alter the rake and trail, and will be able to get it close to the NSR but it's unlikely you will get it the same, you'll have to do some careful measuring. I don't think Nigel has any issues with his front suspension though.
