Appreciate any comments/ info ...
I've read a lot on here about the R6 shock mod and am intending to convert. However, I'm also considering a swingarm mod at the same time.
Does anyone have any experience with exchanging the standard FZS1000 swingarm and putting in one from Fazer1k Gen2 / FZ1 / FZ8.
I'd be interested to hear of any differences in size and fitting, particularly around the pivot point - to understand what I would need to manufacture iro spacers/ collars (assuming its possible)
Also any other implications and/or challenges with shock mounting and linkages.
I haven't taken mine apart yet, so I would be grateful for any info/ measurements on the standard Gen1 unit, if available.
Cheers
