I just got a YZF swingarm for $14 off ebay! I couldnt resist. No one else bid! So I guess its going on the basement build, my hybrid wheel is coming off(this winter probably) and going on that project, and then, thanks to ABS I can put R6 5 spoke wheels on my hybrid. Sweet! I love cheap parts!

I know the 99-02 sprockets wont interchange with anything newer. I accidentally bought a newer one and it was no where near correct.

you have more options for 03-05 R6 wheel. reason i got a supersprox rear 47t was because they were the only ones i get get steel teeth in a 520 set up. but i recoment that sprocket to anyone besides just 99-02 R6 rims.

On the R6 forum there is a lot of documentation on how to switch 03+ wheels onto 99-02. If they can get it on a 99-02, then thanks to you, I can get it on a YZF swingarm. The rear is an easy swap, the front is what makes it difficult for some. The rotors are different bolt pattern and later versions are larger, so you have to use 03 r6 rotors on the front. The axle is the same dia and the width is the same, so the spacers should work, but Im going to have to machine the sprocket carrier regardless. I could make it simple and do the R6 3 spoke to match the front that I already have, but I wanted 5 spokes from the start and theyre I think 17% lighter. I think it can be done, and it would look HOT!
