Has anyone done this already? Is it possible even? I know my bike has four lugs, newer wheel has five, is the offset close? Is it worth looking into?
There's a thread around somewhere (either here or over at VFR Discussion) where guys are swapping in a Ducati 848 Evo rear wheel (a very nice, very light, forged Marzocchi rear). If they can pull that off I'd bet they could help you with your question.
There's also a single sided swingarm group started on Facebook that seems to have a bit of technical swap info getting posted........https://www.facebook.com/groups/140398120082916/
