does the katana front end go right on or do you have to mod? Does it ride better like handeling wise?

The stem has to be modifed , the Excellent Right up is on the FAQ *Dgyvers Weekend wrenching*  and two custom spacers,

I followed the right up and had it modified and put on in well under 6 hours , with the Braided Lines , and HH pads , its one finger breaking , and its got Progressive Springs in it , so the front end barely dips ,

jay would progressive springs and braided brake lines be just as good as the kat front end?

well i didnt use progressives in the stock front end i had , i had the braided lines, but i think , it just feels more stable in corners , and u can hammer the breaks and its fine , u think its designed for the weight and force of a 80 bhp bike , and thats with the stock springs , i have progressives in , as the front end came with it
