Brad,

The swing arm, rear drive will fit. The forks will fit with some slight machining to the top tree, or you could use the convert trees and add a spacer to the bottom bearing to raise it to fit the loopframe. You can use the alternator, but you need to move the bottom fender support up I believe so it will no make contact. This is pretty much what I am doing right now with my project.

Suppose I had a line on an old convert, what would be the issues related to putting it into a loopframe? Change the front engine cover to the old generator style? will the swing arm and rear drive fit and would the convert fork fit the loop steering head? thanks for the expert knowledge. fotoguzzi
