What swingarms share the same pivot tube as Z1?
13 Jan 2019 11:59
Im looking to possibly build a swingarm for my Z1. What other models share the same pivot tube so I dont hack up a Z1 or early KZ arm?

As fare as i know the GSX-R 1100 (86-88) GU74 share the same 16 mm OD pivot tube as Z1
All other swing arm (Z1 = OD 16 mm pivot to swing arm 20 ,22 ,25 mm OD pivot ) need a brass sleeve/bushing for the Z1 16 mm pivot.
Some swing arm charts

GS1100 (Chain drive) plops right into a 1000 frame. Not sure about the 900.

Thanks, but Im not interested in the whole arm, just the front pivot tube. Ill fab up the rest with rectangle tubing. Needs to be steel.

Are the early 80s chain drive KZ1000s an option?
