Yep. Once you decide to pull the trigger on that thought, Your next thing to consider will be whether a belt driven system like a polaris or a chain drive. Ditch any thoughs of swingarming a larger engine. more hassle than it's worth with no comfort/handling gain for all the work.

then suspension setup and the choice of CVs and double a arms or chain drive trailing arms. I wouldn't even think about anything under 400cc--unless you do a screamer bike engine coupled to a reverse box. I really don't think one swingarm buggy is better or worse than the next to convert to irs. there's enough builds around to follow and you've got the tools and skills to do it.
