not a great problem really mate i just made spacers up to fit inbetween the swingarm and frame, then (using the kr1s shock) i used the std kr linkage but made up spacers so that it mimiked the rgv dimensions (ie two either side of it,different widths as the rgv mount is offcentre, and a bar thru that allowed me to use the rgv bolts) then just had to extend the rgv tie bars to fit..

Image

Image

i have a steel spacer unning through the kr1s knuckle it is 85mm long.20mm ext diam and 12mm int diam (for rgv bolt)
the outer spacers are alloy and are both 35mm ext diam and >20mm int diam but as the rgv swingarm fittings are slightly off centre they rt hand spacer is 21mm and the left side is 24mm.

quick pointer, ive done the q/release tank mod and the lare clips can catch your leathers, solution is to use a small clip on the rear mount that does'nt ''overlap'' the edge of the tank grommet. the bike is awesome btw, hope it goes a good as it looks!
