They won't bolt up directly. But they can be made to bolt up; however, seeing that you have a 93, any alterations is going to make you require to use another speedometer. The 95' and up CBR900's 929 & 954 basically ALL Honda's switched to a electronic speedometer. You're going to have to wire up your sprocket cover and add few other changes. There's also the option of after market digital speedometers available that come with a complete kit that you can look into. If you want to still go for the Upside option, you're looking to get the following.

Basically a whole front end - involving calipers, front wheel, rotors, axle, bearings, upper & lower triples, clip ons -Left and right, ignition to fit the top 954/929 triple clamp, and front fender.

To install: It involves removing the center rod that goes through the Lower Triple ( The one that bolts at the neck of the front to the frame.) You need the 954/929 one removed and have the 900rr one put on the 929/954 lower triple.) This involves finding a shop with a press and having the press out both and pressing one in. The whole thing isn't cheap at all But if you want the "looks'" then it becomes worth while.

I was going to do the same thing but.... it got too costly. I got as far as getting the front forks, triples, and ignition........ I'm going to sell it off.... not worth the headaches for me...


Good luck!

Another thing to think about is that 929/954's came with VERY weak front springs. They are the perfect spring rate for the bike alone but as soon as you throw a rider on there they are too weak and dive a LOT. I would think this would be very detrimental to stunting.

A friend with a stunt 929 just recently switched his front springs over to 1.0's I think (A little too big for him but better for stunting) and he says he likes the feel SO much better. No more bottoming out the forks when coming down hard from a wheelie and stoppies feel a lot better and controlled.

But if you want to spend the time and money the spring were only like $120 plus $50 for seals and fluid and the forks will already be out so what better time to do the swap.
