78 kz650 frame help

Okay guys,
it's a _very_ long story, but if anyone has a 78 kz650b2 frame they can take a look at, I need the width of the swingarm bolt bosses welded into the frame.

short version of the story:
I'm putting a 2001 zx6r rear end on my 78kz650 and do not have enough time to finish it before I'll be able to ride it, so it's going to be put off another year. I've already made some mods to my frame and need to make spacers to compensate for that.

If no one can get this, I have a backup plan, but would rather have the actual numbers.

Thanks guys,
-Bill

Welcome to KZr bill.

Give me a few minutes, I'll go out to the garage and get you that measurement from my bike.

im gonna guess right around 9" but ill wait to see what R4 says since he has an actual 650 frame to go by;)

Dang blasted rear-sets are in the way and I can't even squeeze the tape measure around them on either side!


Sorry Bill. :blush: :S

Hopefully someone else who has their swingarm off can get the measurements for you.

I measure just over 9 in. A hair under 9 1/16.

Thanks guys for the very quick responses! :woohoo: Though, actually I meant the bosses themselves.
should be in the area of an inch - inch and a half.
