swing arm pivot width dimensions

[Jack]

I plan on swapping a Xs into a Z650 0r Kz650( are they both the same) if I can score one this coming year with intensions of swapping out the front forks and swing arm. While searching for a doable S/A swap
I can across this thread of S/A dimensions that others might find useful in limiting their search.

An interesting list, saved a copy, thanx Jack.

It's missing our XS650 swingarms, which would have a nominal width of about 200mm.

They have the XS650 listed at 190mm, not sure how accurate the others are but atleast it gives something to go by.
This is what I want to build except with a XS . All ready have the aluminum Fz600 arm with linkage modified for a 8 degree S/A angle, just hope I can get a 34 to 36 tooth sprocket for the FZ wheel. These Kz frames have wider opening in the back allowing a much longer manifold to be used plus I just like the looks of the older KZ's

Yes, the KZ650 and the Z650 are the same. Z650 are what the Brits called theirs.

Thanks that's what I figured.
