any suzuki front end will go on a gs, the only difference is the stem lenth usually everything is longer than the gs, all suzukis have the same width, i wound go for that i would go for a complete front end with wheel, calipers, top and bottom yolks ect ect, you'll either have to press out the original stem and put in the gs one or put a spacer on the bottom of the new one, most people go for the rgv front end but i understand you dont get many over there so mabee a gsxr or a bandit will be the better option for you guys
good luck

I just got done putting a Kat. front end on mine.  I took the GS stem to a local bike shop and had the guy swap the steering stems for me $42 which was alot to me but I didnt have to screw with making spacers or anything and now the Kat. triple bolts on just like the GS triple.   Havent been able to ride it yet though.  Dont for get you will have to figure out how to remount the headlight and gauges. 

Remove the bits that held light brackets to the GS forks

$140 (at least)?  You do know I have a set of TL1000 forks for sale, right?  You're out the same money for the wheel assembly.

on the F model the lights and all mount on the frame so i dont think that will be a problem,

i would like to keep the stock bar and set up, as that what i am use to and it works for me. is the possable, as well as the stock master or is the kat master better?

if you're going to upgrade...then upgrade.  The stock master is pansy...get a 5/8" SV piece and get the bigger GSXR calipers.

By the way, I can have bar mounts put on the TL's tripples...
