    GS1150 Swing Arm Swap

    Hello all, I recently began a project to swap an 1150 swinger onto my gs750 frame. I have the swingarm, shock, and the lever. I think I am missing a couple of bolts. Can someone with a GS1150 please share pictures of their rear suspension so that I can see what an assembled unit looks like? I'm interested to see the shock mount that is part of the frame of the motorcycle so that I know what I need to fabricate for this.

    I have tried googling and searching on this forum, but I cannot find anything helpful on this.

    Thanks!!

    I can try to grab some pics later. I have one disassembled in the garage attic.

          That is a bit helpful, I have that lever part that's pictured but not the triangle it's attached to. Where does that all bolt to?

              this would be awesome if you could sort of set it all up so that I can see how it goes together!! Like I said, I know I'm missing a couple parts, but I don't know what because I cannot find any pictures of an assembled gs1150 rear suspension. I would GREATLY appreciate if you could post some pics!!

              thanks,
