Apperently it seems that there is no gs1100 swing arm for sale at all, guess you guys take them as fast as they is put on ebay :laugh:
However, as another person said, was that The swing from the gpz1100 woyld work, correct? And if so, does i have to modifie it very much? The pivot axles and diameters was exactly between The gs1000,..
Here is swing arm on ebay, from. The gpz though. So, what do you guys say about it? Is it a lost case directly maybe?[ebayhttps://www.ebay.com/itm/Kawasaki-GPZ-1100-KZT10B-Hinterradschwinge-Schwinge-swing-arm/332599816230?hash=item4d707e7026:g:gpQAAOSw7WJaumD8[/ebay]

Thanks for your proffesional help guys!

So i bought The swing that Scirocco was linking me to, Thanks for that! Now its time to find some rear shocks, and I have found a couple of shocks that i am looking into, besides those YSS that i was recommended earlier.
What are you guys saying about these? http://firefoxracing.co.uk/parts-accessories/online-shop/suspension-parts/yss-shock-absorbers/yss-shock-absorbers-suzuki/suzuki-gsx-1100-s-katana-1982-1984-double-tube-hydraulic-yss-twin-shock/
They are cheap and seems to have The measurements that i need and is said to be from yss.
Cheers!

So, The katana swing arm is on it's way home and I bought a set of yss 13" rear absorbers, just as recommended by you guys. I guess the final thing i need to buy is some rims now. I asked out on Facebook and got a lot of response, some People thought that the best idea would be to get rims and a complete set of swing arm from either a zephyr 750 or the zrx1100/1200. What do you guys say? I have found out that the rear rim from a zx10 would work out quite well and the rims from the zrx1100 would also work if i change the bearings, or have i missed anything?

Would anybody be able to confirm what kind of wheels that might work without at least custom making as possible? Shall i buy The zrx1100 or tgw zx10?
Cheers and have a really good weekend!
