I used the front end from a ZX9R on my CSR build. Supposedly the longest of the Jap front ends. Still came out too low though. I ended up having fork extenders made up on the lathe. Plenty of clearance now.

You can use basically any male-slider front suspension by swapping the KZ stem into the new lower clamp. However, as davido mentioned, most of the newer forks are much shorter, and you will
be going to a 17 inch front wheel unless you can make the spacers and brake mods to use the stock KZ wheel.

I use the same ZX9R fork, exept for the 6 Piston front brake caliper mount spacing, on my Project bike.
Never had any problems with the ground to header (Marving) when cornering hard.
