Hey everyone,
I've been working on a project bike off and on for the last 2 months. I started with a 81 GS450 and put a 636 front end on. I also replaced the rear swingarm with a ninja 250r setup. After some measurements I realized that the 250 swingarm increases trail by approx 3 inches. So now the plan is to use the stock GS swingarm with the 250r's wheel, brakes & sprocket. For suspension I am going with a monoshock setup, ill need to fabricate some mounts.
Doing this requires me to make custom wheel spacers. I also need to align the rear wheel with the front. Does anyone have an easy way to do this?
Here is a pic with the 250 swingarm in place.
