Re: Putting L5 Front End On H1 Help NEEDED Installing
oh dear where to start eh??
forks are different diameters as you have found out so you will need the bottom yoke off the L model, wether this fits into the H frame i'm not sure?
you will also need the L discs, i'm assuming you are using L calipers? Also you will need to modify spacers to fit the H wheel into the forks, L mudguard as you have found.

Don't forget people there is more to the zxr400 than this forum... check out www.zxrworld.co.uk also.

calipers are interchangeable so keep the H model ones.I'm sure someone on here has fitted L forks to their H model just by opening the yokes up.

Re: Putting L5 Front End On H1 Help NEEDED Installing
look nice dude.
L forks wont really work. different stem,yokes, fork length, waisted different..etc..
you would have to get the H stem fitted to the L bottom yoke. I would be concerned with the handling tho!.. ive tried dropping my forks to i guess what would be the same length as the L forks.. and it does'nt handle.
I would just sell them L jobbies and get some H ones meself...
edit... like your allready planning in ya other posts!

Re: Putting L5 Front End On H1 Help NEEDED Installing
they look nice forks mate... unfortunatley they are only worth about 120ish. i think at 250 or 290?? 
you may of paid over the odds 
You can get more than that for worked on forks off a known bike/racer.
they are L forks by the way, not J model ones. J model forks are very rare and would fit your bike.
