A Special Note about Email accounts!
DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.
A note to old forum members...
I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.
Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.
Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.
I've toyed with the idea as well. I actually tried to draw it out, but it just did not work for me(limited tools, budget, small knowledge of suspension). It could be done if you had a good amount of knowledge, tools, and suspension. I just don't want to destroy something I love yet
Check this out. May give you a bit of direction.
Yes, it's possible, Suzuki did it on the GSX1100G.

Is it practical? That would depend on how much time/effort/money you want to put into it.
You may not have enough room on the swingarm to do the lower mounts, and it will be rather difficult to either make a new swingarm or modify your current one.
Just remember that "ugly" is in the eye of the beholder. Can't say that I have heard of dual-shock setups being "ugly" before.
