one of the members has tried this but you would have to replace the whole lower cradle  . u also have to think about where will the drive sprocket be in relation to the swing arm /rear sprocket to low  you will get chain issues .the one advantage would be a big weight loss as the 1000 cradle  is heaver if y got the time money have a go but as been said would be easier to change forks wheels swinger etc for better ones also look at replacing the rear subframe { as it is steel for an ally one } doing these mods can give you a BIG weight loss see my 6 as this is what ive done and its 180kg wet  y wont get a 1000 that low but y would have a lot more power

Yes, you are just trying to make something that already exists,


good thinking but get a bit more original,,get thinking more,,get a Guzzi or something.


I know a man who made this incredible machine that you put wood chips in, it went through a dryer,then a huge compressor to make wood logs,a years work,,,more problems than you could imagine,,now the farmer who rented him the shed, told me,,"stupid fool,he is just making WOOD, " knowing that there is already wood.

well technically yes but actually no.

I think you'll get numerous replies along the lines of buy a Thou and swap the forks/ swingarm etc on that instead of all that work on the 6

I agree. Then tune up the motor to at least R1 levels and then you would have a real street sleeper. What ever you do make sure you post it on here.

Go for it, I put a 1052 gsxr engine in a 600 bandit with gsxr k4 swingarm, forks and running gear. Fairly straight forward. End result is light and fast. Insurance with adrian flux is £500 all mods declared.
