GRP Scooter Products does a F/G SX one and he does F/G GP tops so he should be able to do a GP conversion

The chrome obviously won't survive as the top needs boring out, then the Ali ring welding in. Welders don't like chrome and chrome doesn't like weld, especially Ali.
I've done an SX and S2 luckily using favours and mates labour rates, but those resources sadly are now gone.
Best of luck , hopefully Tim can help you out.

Hello,
Sorry I don’t think I was clear, I would provide another top headset and have that modified.
I wouldn’t wreck the chrome headset I have as it’s too good.
Or maybe someone will come up trumps with one made already ha
