I have found several threads about using an SS swing arm on an R frame. What is the feasibility of using an R swing arm on an SS?

Thanx

The shock length and mounting point(s) are different or in a different angle and you need some custom oil lines and of course another belt!

I don't know if you saw Motorcyclist two issues ago... they converted an STT to chain drive (with shorter swingarm). They didn't mention the oil lines (not saying they didn't need them though); they did have a one-off Ohlins built.
