Hi All,

Ive searched so many forums including this one and was unable to find a documented process or description of GPZ900 wheel/swingarm/fork/brake caliper swap. Ive found a lot of member photos talking about their finished or ongoing project which includes swaped wheel or swingarm but no one actually documented this process so others can go do the same. Has anyone seen any detailed process in this regard?

Cheers

omr (old man rock)has a build thread that covers front and rear conversions pretty well.

a stem swap usually converts the front end,unless you want some trick a$$ed triples .
in which case you should contact forum member les holt.

gsxr,r1/r6,zx636 swingarms have all been used on projects.

let us know if we can help.

With that chassis you can use 05 gsxr 600 swingarm , take the bushing out of your swingarm and turn it down to fit inside gsxr bushing, that way you can use the original swingarm bolt. The front end can swap for 2000 gsxr 750 just turn down stem to fit your 900 stem brgs onto gsxr stem. anymore questions you can private messege me

Thank you guys. Due to my current seat design, I dont have a rear mudguard or tyre hugger as you like.
I was planning to get the one that sits on swingarm. Dear RTGPZ, what mudguard are you using on your red Gpz?

On the other note, once I swap tyres, do I have to upgrade the calipers as well? and to what model? Cheers

What about sporkets, chain, rear shock and brake calipers/rotors? can any of these stay original (gpz900) or do i need to upgrade if I when with GSXR600 swap?

Also some say ZZR1100 swing arm? Cheers

zzr swing arm will work , You mainly have to pick your poison .I used all oem gsxr products on back.

I have 17tooth frt and 43 back ,I'm going to a 41 tooth on back . The only diff is i put a 6 speed in mine ,so stick with your oem number of teeth . I offset my sprocket 7/8 of an inch,or 22mm. Then I put a bearing support in to help with trans bearings.I run 525 pitch

Hi RTGPZ, i just messaged you about the swap! Im planning to the same i’d be great to have a few tips! Did you have to fuck around to allign the gsxr wheel sprocket to the chain? Cheers!

RTGPZ hasn't logged in since 2016.

i doubt you get a response.
