i noitice the gs wheel can take another disc on it , and i was wondering what i could use, so i can hook both up , also , what would u say are the best springs and can i get them in england? i no of the progressive and the racetech not sure if i can get them in this country , . i like the look of the front , i just dont like the sinking.... Thanks Guys

Race-Tech, in my opinion, is the best. Progressive is the best bang for buck, though. I'm not sure of others outside ordering directly from Eibach or something but then you'll have to know exactly what you want down to tolerance and dimension and whatever.
As far as mounting dual discs up front...
Ghetto...buy another right hand fork, another GS500 rotor, another GS500 caliper, a TL1000S SS brake line set (or compatible), and a 1/2" (minimum) master cylinder. Stick the new fork into the left triple holes and basically run the caliper and all backwards (toward the front of the wheel, opposite the stock side).
Less ghetto...buy CBR F1 forks and wheel and slip them into the GS500 triple.
Right way...full Katana front end.
Cool way...full K4+ GSXR1000 front end.
the wheel will take another one , u just take the plastic off the wheel , how would i use both at once tho , thats my main question , like when i squeeze the single lever ., how would i make both work.. Thanks

If your asking how to apply pressure to both calipers after modifying the left fork to accept a caliper...................you just get a new set of lines off of something designed for two rotors.............TL1000,GSXR etc........... but you would probably want to get a new master cyclinder as the stock GS probably wont be able to produce the amount of pressure needed for solid braking with 2 discs
like said...you get a ss line kit for a TL1000S...almost all of the kits come with a dual line banjo bolt. Kits for other 2-rotor bikes might, too, but I dunno.
You need a minimum 1/2" master cylinder.
