Hi, I put a triumph st single sided swingarm on one of my chops and have had many requests to do a swingarm for the XS11 yamaha. One question. What is the shock spacing measurement inside to inside on the zrx11 swingarm. I admire your work BTW....

WAS a shaftdrive. I designed a bolt-on conversion and now looking for the perfect swingarm to use in the kit for others.....So I need to know this shock Inside distance, so far I can make an 04-06 R1 swingarm work, but will have to machine shock mounts and weld....the kit would be expensive then....thanks for any help...chop

The shocks on the xs11 frame were 10.5 inches apart, I checked into the KZ1 swingarm but think It won't accept large enogh wheel for the conversion....
