Nope, unless it's a drag race specific arm. You're going to need roughly 9.5" for the tire's width plus and inch for the caliper bracket and another 1.5-2" for the sprocket hub, so roughly 12" wide at the minimum.

You can run a 200 series on any late model 1000cc super sport rear end with their standard 6.0" inch rear wheel...

For a 240 rear tire you need a custom wheel and swing arm... The cost about doubles with a 240 set up...
