My '86 R looks to have frame damage, so I picked up a very nice '85 frame for a good price. Didn't even think twice about it, but after reading 1 post on here, I'm a little curious. Am I going to have any problems swapping everything over to the '85 frame?

when doing my frame up restore i took a my complet 86R and switched it to a bare 85R frame only cuz it had a title thats the only reason i did that. the things that were different were...
tank mounts
motor mounts
1" in the rake
the rubber staps under the tank
and the foot pegs how the mount up
and thats about all i can think of with the frame.

How much of a problem did you have fitting all the '86 parts over (such as the motor mounts, tank mounts, etc.)?

the mounts are the same just need to make some trips to the hardwear store for some different kind of bolts and nuts. other than that its not to hard just takes time.
