Shaft drive to chain conversion? was created by Born Dead 2
Hello all,
So I got a new project in mind these days. Since I have a few KZ's in my shop I was thinking of this and thought I would run it by you guy's before I start. So I have an 84 Zn700 shaftie that I'm not to fond of, it runs good, just don't like the Shaftdrive. I also got an 84 kz750 that I picked up recently that needs some lovin'. But after some "Canadian Herbal medication"
I thought why not take the KZ750 motor and swing arm off that and replace the zn700 motor and shaftdrive so it will be a chain drive. The only thing that came to mind was will the front part of the ZN700 frame acomidate the swingarm of the kz750? It looks to me that it will, but I was wondering if anyone has done this or have any insight on this.
Thanks in advance.
