    might be..but the question is why? any of the things that would make it worth it are part of the wheel conversion from my understanding...the only time i could really see it being worth it would be if there was a SSSA conversion for an F2.

    just wondering...that way you could bypass having to buy/make the wheel spacers...i thought i was buying just a f2 wheel and when i got to the house the swing arm and everything was still hooked together and sitting there...so i kept my mouth shut and handed him the $65 that he wanted and ran for the hills..lmao figure ill just ebay the swing arm and make my money back. since the swing arms are COMPLETELY different. i do like the looks of the cbr's with the SSSA conversion...looks pretty sweet..

    Anything is possible, but an entire swingarm swap requires machining of the swingarm, fabrication of new bearing mounts, and possibly modification of the frame. It's really not recommended unless you have access to a full machine shop and have decent fabricating skills. Not for the meek, that's for sure.

    Spacers are about 1000 times easier.
