from what i gather no.
The fork bottoms for the two bikes are very different.

Yep Tofty's right, but you could fit a set of these http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... :IT&ih=013 got a set on my "track bike" "bloody awsome brakes" but because they are iron they do go rusty quick! think they usualy retail about £400.00

Definately no, so swap your kr1 forks for 1s and fit either 1s or fireblade or gixxer 600/750 calipers etc. It's possible to use the kr1 3 spoke wheel with a bit of messing, or swap to 1s wheels.

Depends how far you want to go. 1 calipers in good nick aren't bad anyway. Newer stuff is available at the right money but you may not think it worth it

PFM are great but I don't think I'd have 'em on a road bike.
