the frame width is the same im thinking of astetics . the measurements at the same as in width . so now its down to getting a rear end in and pulling it all apart and mounting in the gen 2 rear

RE: GEN1 GEN2 REAR ENDS - big kev - 31-03-2010
yeah i had a good read of the busa.org forum im convinced that the swap wont be to hard and im hopeing i will get the look i want . fingers crossed
RE: GEN1 GEN2 REAR ENDS - Rainbow7 - 31-03-2010
If it's not too hard (and doesn't cost the Earth!) let us know; I'll probably do it, too.
RE: GEN1 GEN2 REAR ENDS - big kev - 31-03-2010
yeah i will keep you all informed . i will have the rear end repainted to match the gen 1 colour scheme as well

I like the look in that photo, but still not a fan of the Gen2 rear from the back. It seems like a change for change sake. I would have thought most people are after a 'smaller looking rear' Maybe a Gen1 back on a Gen2 ??

It definitely makes you look twice at a bike like that..
The chrome bling and low stance sure help too.
RE: GEN1 GEN2 REAR ENDS - big kev - 01-04-2010
