I have the GS1100E swingarm mounted up and after getting the wheel (88-90 zx10 18in.) in it looks to be centered and the sprockets align from what I can tell, but when I test fit the chain it is rubbing on the tire. If I were to do an offset front sprocket that is just giving me clearance to align the sprocket, which is already aligned so it would not help with my rear wheel clearance, right? Do I need to find an offset rear sprocket, or shim the sprocket?

Just to note, the swingarm was not a direct fit. I had to add some shims to either side and then I had to trim part of the frame where the exhaust was hanging for the stock pipe location. I could have cut them off, but wanted to retain the look. After the trimming the swingarm fits nicely now.

I am taking my '76 KZ900 and doing the swap to a 2003-2005 kawasaki 636 (zx6r) front end, I already have my KZ stem pressed into the 636 triple and it fits like a glove. I need to make the decision on using the clip-ons, or running some risers, would possibly need a new top triple to do this though. For the rear I have a gs100e swingarm that I will be doing as well. Right now the fender for the 636 looks like absolute crap IMO and doesn't fit the look I want to get.

So, The katana swing arm is on it's way home and I bought a set of yss 13" rear absorbers, just as recommended by you guys. I guess the final thing i need to buy is some rims now. I asked out on Facebook and got a lot of response, some People thought that the best idea would be to get rims and a complete set of swing arm from either a zephyr 750 or the zrx1100/1200. What do you guys say? I have found out that the rear rim from a zx10 would work out quite well and the rims from the zrx1100 would also work if i change the bearings, or have i missed anything?

Heres a GSXR600 arm on my KZ1000 CSR. I had a set of cleats made up and welded on the arm to keep the twin-shock set up. There was quite a difference in the pivot tube diameters so theres an insert in the swingerarm pivot to accept the original Z pivot pin. I cant remember if any spacers were needed (its been a while) but definately didnt need anything taken off at the pivot.
The rear footrest hangers had to go and I even had to grind a bit off the sides of the swingarm where it entered the frame, to stop it binding when the shocks compress and the arm lifts.
I also did something with the rubber chain protector as it didnt line up with the chain run but again,I cant remember exactly. (its all in the build thread).
Satin black powder coat and some stickers finished it all off nicely.

With the zrx swingarm the suspension will be wider then stock so i. The new shocks had 14mm ID had two bobbins for the swingarm and drilled a larger hole so it fits the upper shock bracket. The new shocks has 14mm bushings so i took a tube who had m10x1.25 inside . I turned off the outer diam from 20mm to 14mm except for 3mm . Now i have a nut that fits perfect in the upper hole on the shock.

Sorry for my english .

Hi!
My name is Jan and i live in Sweden.
In november i bought mysel a Gpz750 1982 who had seen his best days.
I started the same day to take the Bike apart , most of the parts was junk but that doesn´t bother me becuase i should only use the frame engine and the electrical wiring..
First of all i bought a fork and a swingarm complete with rims from an zrx1100.
The fork was just bolton.
The swingarm i had to shave of 5mm and i also made som adapters so i could use smaller bearings so the oem swingarm bolt fit.
Bought a 3/8" offset front sprocket and shaved off the wheel hub 9mm so the sprockets got in line.

You will swap three diffrent bike model parts to the front and rear end, no way Buddy. Best way to take the ZX9R B model wheel, fork, brake and speedo drive.
Too many diffrent spacings and axle/bearing Diameter.



This site list some modern bike brake, swingarm, fork and suspenion write up.
