Rene EFE Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Frontend swap is pretty straightforward; Slingshot forks slot straight in. Rear is a bit of a faff, but if you don't want to do welding, you can really only get away with a 4.5 Slingshot rear 1 Quote Link to comment

Rhubarb Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Anything is achievable with will and ingenuity. As said theres loads of info on here just gotta go for a browse. And as for not Oss standard practice.... Look my project up. Entirely Suzuki, well maybe not the rear wheel... But otherwise defective of everything else expected Welcome dude Quote Link to comment
