NT650/VFF800 Swingarm Question

Does anyone know if the eccentric from the VFR will swap into the 650 swingarm? I'd like to use the NT on a bike, with the VFR wheel. The NT wheel is hideous, and uses one bolt, compared to four on the VFR.
 
Does not look to be a straight swap. Sounds like some machining of the VFR hub is needed. A quick search brought me to a Hawk GT site with this: http://www.hawkgtforum.com/forum/forum/honda-hawk-gt-bros-discussions/mechanical-and-technical/6185-details-on-modifying-the-hub-for-vfr-rear-wheel
Looks like some mod the VFR wheel to fit the NT hub with one centered nut as well.

Reading a little more, I see this:

"You need:
vfr750/800 wheel
vfr750 spindle & wheel nuts
vfr750 brakeplate
vfr750 brake caliper
vfr750 disc
hawk or vfr750 eccentric
hawk cush
a half inch spacer to make up for the fact that the vfr spindle doesn't have quite enough thread.

Bolt it up."
