I took a mono-shock swingarm for a 86-88 Gsxr1100 and had some mounts welded on and the arm almost slid right in. I had to do some grinding on the back of the brake pedal mount but that was the only frame alteration. With the right rim/ sprocket carrier/ sprocket combo you should be able to run up to a 180mm tire. And if you want you can swap back to the original setup without anyone knowing.

have a 190 on the zx7 rim, its going to need a 3/8 offset front sprocket to get the chain to line up, not a big deal.
