What are the differences between the R1200C (Chromehead) engine/ gearbox combination and the R1150 and R1100? The R1200C engine has the same bore and stroke as the Hexhead but the block looks different somehow - more like an 1150 or 1100.

The gearbox looks a bit like the R1100GS?

I can't find any info on the swing-arm widths between the different frames from the G/S onwards but I know that the monolever swing-arm of the Chromehead is 30mm wider than the R80G/S. How many different width of swing-arms were there between the AIrheads, Oilheads, Chromeheads and Hexheads?
