yes i have braced the frame where most of the torque is going to have a impact and i doubled up the side,rear and front motor mounts also. the frame on the f2 is steel and not aluminum or anything so that helps alot too.as far as the swingarm i am looking for a place to get it reinforced and stretched 6"-- i found one place but i am shopping around..

i have been researching this for about 2 months and have talked to 5 other people who have done this change without changing anything on the frame and one guy did his in 95 and it still has not cracked or anything- but on the flip side there was one guy that heavily notched his frame to fit the motor and after about 2 years of wheelies cracked the frame..

turboinferno83 that was classic!!! glad that someone said it so i didnt have to

i have had a 900 engine in my f2 since 1996. first a 96 motor, now a 98 and i have had absolutely no problems with the frame cracking. i dynoed the 96 motor at 129hp. i also did no cutting on the frame rails, it is not necessary. don't let blackdog or anyone else scare you away from this conversion. it is a blast when u pull up next to an r1 on a little old outdated f2 and he can't shake you.

i did the same swap and the motor slides right into the F2 frame you dont need to cut anything just put the motor in from the bottom and it all mounts up. the only thing that you have to cut is the rear upper motor mount but other than that no cutting required...
