I borrowed an 1150 swinger of Chef in order to see if it would bolt on... it doesn't but the rear end setup is exactly the same except the hole through the swinger is 20mm.

That's what I thought Billy... unfortunately it's not that easy & there is not much advantage if any (to fitting the wider wheel tyre) than using the stocker.
The swingarm pivot is a different length so you's have to grind down either the frame or the top hat bush & dust seal on the outside by about 3mm, inside measures up fine & also one of the shock linkage pivots is in a different spot.Last edited by salty_monk; 07-25-2009, 02:12 AM.1980 GS1000G - Sold
