Will be very dificult but give it a go. Anything is possible with a bit of cutting and welding, may need special front spocket too. Be interesting though, if i'm gonna have a 727cc motor for next season maybe a 180 tyre be better!
Maybe an r1 or cbr600rr be easier due to the underseat pipe making the swing arm narrower at the front

Measure the length from swingarm pivot to wheel spindle .... it will probably be longer which will slow the handling a bit ... maybe.
