Is it 16mm? I won't be taking it apart for the swap till I get all the parts in hand. I just want to verify the size so I can order some Nylon or Delrin spacers. Thanks guys!

According to Kawasaki.com it is 16mm. Also, that site shows it being the same diameter as the bolt on my KZ650 which I measured, and it is 16mm too. Ed

Thanks again 650ED.

If any of you have done the gs1100e swingarm conversion I need some info. I doubt the factory chain will be long enough, how many links did you have on the new chain with the longer swingarm?

One more thing. I'm going to be using goldwing shocks. Will I need the the mounting hardware for the clevis joints on the lower end of the shocks from a Golwing or the gs 1100e?
