Swing arm swap on kz750h

First off love all the input everyone has its great, thank you! I have a 82 kz750h and it is the first kz that I have owned that has that dinky little rear wheel. Is it possible, difficult, logical to change that swing arm so I can put the larger size wheel in the rear? Keep in mind I am just a at home garage mechanic with no welder, so the easier the better if it is possible at all! Thanks in advance!

There is alot of stuff on this in the Archives ,, You can also see what I did in Cafe Shoe ..projects section ,, It can be easy but you may need to get spacers made ? The GS1100E swing arm is one inch wider so it is possible ,I have pics of this in Cafe Shoe , You will need to do some research and your homework ,, Drum Brakes , disc brakes ,, how wide ? what size rim ? it all makes changing over different ,, Post lots of pictures when you do start on this :)
