Does anyone know if an Aprillia rs250 swingarm would fit a standard

Kr1s chassis?

I believe Salty and Spannerman may have tried this conversion, not sure how far they got though - might be worth giving them a PM

I'm pretty sure it'll fit into the frame, but I think there may have been issues with shock alignment

be aware of any changes which may effect eligability to race in certain classes Nick. I know that changing the swing arm would mean your bike would not conform to GP2 Thundersport GB regulations to use that as an example.

thought about that, the sale includes the whole rear end,wasn't planning to fit it all,it's the wheels etc I was after mostly,but the price is half decent when its all added up,

I remember Capirossi racing with wires coming out of the back of his hand, the glove company made him special cloves so he could carry on racing, now that's wellard!

I won't be doing that, just going to try to keep fit and be ready for next season.
