it really depends on budget and skill level. do you want to upgrade as far as possible and go with a new sport bike rear end complete with mono shock and 6 by 17 wheel with a big fat tire or just something a bit better than stock and far easier like an aluminum gs1100 swingarm, possibly with a gpz wheel. there are lots of possibilities. what are your plans for the bike? what look are you after?

1980 KZ750G swingarm will bolt right on :)

83-85 GPz750 aluminum swingarm will fit if you enlarge the swingarm pivot bolt holes in the frame (to 17mm IIRC) and narrow the swingarm a little. Weld on shock tabs for dual shocks also.

Those are the only two that I have actually done.

That thread was from before I learned how to resize pics in members posts :)

All fixed now.
