Unless you have a LOT of time or free access to a machine shop to do the requisite grinding and cutting to make it fit. I happen to have time and a decent amount of tools to choose from, so I did it. I have no idea how it will ride, but I'm hoping it will be nice. If not, I can always swap in my WP shock for track days. There's still a lot of work to do before I can even start the engine, but here are some pics: <br /> <br /><img src="http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd113/bldrratt/100_1976.jpg" border="0" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd113/bldrratt/100_1969.jpg" border="0" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd113/bldrratt/100_1970.jpg" border="0" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd113/bldrratt/100_1971.jpg" border="0" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd113/bldrratt/100_1972.jpg" border="0" /></span> </td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/ninja250rc/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> </table>
