    ZRX1200R GS parts swapping ?????

    I have a totalled ZRX1200R. Before I part it out, I was wondering if anyone has tried putting a ZRX1200 front end and swing-arm on a GS1000/1100. Im into this bike really cheap and those parts would look very right at home on a future build I am collecting parts for. Thanks guys!

    Swingarm is wide at the pivot, and the shock mounts are considerably wider and do not align with upper frame shock mounts.

    Would take considerable machining

      Thanks. As I started pulling stuff today, It became more apparent that it is quite a larger bike.
