Needing help with a fork swap. Does anyone know any other models with compatible forks?

Only bike I know with 37mm forks is the original Honda CBR600F1 Hurricane.  Anything else would require the triple clamps being swapped.  And even the Honda forks are longer than the stock GS, runs into clearance issues with the stock handle bars.

Thanks IL l check out that option. I'm changing from handlebars to side grips so it might work anyways.

The stock Hurricane clip ons lead to interference between the banjo bolt on the master cylinder and the GS gauges.  Adfalchius got around it by using the '89 style GS handlebar set up which allows the CBR forks to pass through.
