ZX6R swingarm on KZ650? was created by DrWhizBang
Has anyone swapped a ZX6R swingarm onto a KZ650? Or does anyone know the dimensions? The one I am looking at is from a 2001.
Thanks
Thanks

Judging from the parts diagrams, I would say yes, I think they are the same.

thanks, Jeff. Very helpful. Did you have to sleeve it, and do you know how much over stock it is?

Yes, I had to have a sleeve made to fit the stock swingarm axle. As for being over stock, I'm assuming you mean the length, right? If so, it was around 2-3" longer than the stock swingarm.

Question for Jeff...
Was there a reason/need to sleeve the inner swing arm pivot tube versus enlarging the pivot bolt holes in the frame?
I have a 1976 KZ900-A4 in which I'm converting to this exact swing arm. The KZ pivot bolt is 5/8" versus the ZX pivot bolt dimension of 3/4"...
Thanks in advance,
Old Man Rock

84 GPZ750. Modded with stock Kawasaki parts: ZR-7 shock, ZX-6 coils, GPZ1100 throttle, EN454 brake, GPZ900 fuse box, etc. and non stock: Ken Sears mirrors, K&N filter, Pirelli Sport Demons.

I believe that making a new sleeve is much easier than line boring the two frame holes so that they are exactly straight.
Another point would be that the frame would be made more weak with less material from the drilling. The sleeve would probably help in the strength thing also.
