Considered doing this but think arm is 20mm too wide compared to RGV arm.

GSXR 400 wheel with spacers is the same width I'm sure as VJ21/22 which NK does a kit to fit those arms so you could simply pick up a VJ21 arm and chain adjusters ( usually very cheap ) and fit with an NK kit and the GSXR wheel.

Biggest issue will be the sprocket off set and the brake caliper mount/bracket stay/torque arm.

The Sprocket is offset more which may make the chain run hit the frame. The sprocket carrier cannot be turned down but the sprocket could be if you needed a few mm.

It would be good to compare it to an RGV arm as the structure looks similar including the linkage.

Steve I wish I had one to check it with,, might be worth me buying an rgv fitting kit and see what happens, there both Suzukis after all ?

I was wanting to do the same thing, i also was put off by Nk, but have thought since at looking at the possibility of putting a valve engine into the Gsxr 400 that's sat in the corner gathering dust.
Any thoughts?

I'm going to have a look on Saturday ,will let you know how I get on

I have a GSXR400 swingarm in an LC frame if thats similar dimensions

Cheers for that Harry, I've seen banana arms on ypvs and lcs so it just might work,there's hope yet,,,,
