I'm not sure as I've never looked, but I would be very surprised if it did work. The one that would be the most similar is the YZF600 and that doesn't swap either I think.
Yes, that is a Single Sided Swingarm FZR600 that I built.

Something is lurking, waiting, wanting to be built......It calls to me from the darkness....

I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel....Then I realize that it is the train coming to run my ass over....

this has nothing to do with what your asking, but
has anyone else realized that the yamaha R1 is LIGHTER weight than the R6????
the R1 is less than 400lb's and the R6 OVER 400...it makes no sense but its true
