As far as im aware, the 636 forks wil go straight into the L model yokes. You will have to use the 636 calipers, as for the wheel i believe you can use either the 636 or the 400 wheel (need spindle and spacers making up though for the 400 wheel).
Hope this helps

636 forks or ZX6r, brakes, wheel and rotors, slide them into the stock triples, they're about 25 mm longer than the stock forks so they need to stick out above the triple to get the correct geometry. Easy as can be.....
