Stewart750 Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Hey guys been a while, got me 750et al.done and on the road and been looking at rear end swaps, is there anything that's relatively easy to go on or is anything a general cut and grind? Cheers Quote Link to comment
TonyGee Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 what are you thinking ? the gsx1100 et ally swinger will go in but the pivots are different sizes, easily sorted though. ive got a 1200 bandit swinger and wheel on mine. Quote Link to comment

Sorry buddy, meant as in the seat and seat unit Quote Link to comment
Swiss Toni Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Why change something that already looks good? Just bin the rear ‘guard. Classic lines! Quote Link to comment

Joseph Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Well the usual trick is to bin the small covers under the seat, cut the end off, shorten it accordingly and weld the end to move the tail unit so it joins the side panels directly. Thats quite straightforward and looks good Other than that it's going to be a full build of a subframe. Do you have any ideas to go from ? Quote Link to comment

Not really was just looking for ideas and have been thinking about shortening the rear, also got to find a rear lense as mine is in a million bits lol. Quote Link to comment
Joseph Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 OK well these have such a nice design overall, it's best to focus on "chassis" mods when customising them. @TonyGeeshows a good example 1 Quote Link to comment

wraith Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Ps, there is a place in Germany that sell patend lenses for £16 on fbay but the only problem is they got the hump with the UK when we left that blue flag thing and won't ship to the UK now Quote Link to comment
