Apologies as I know this has been debated to death before but been searching and just can't find the info I am looking for. I have a 1100GS swingarm and bevel drive which I thought of putting onto my GS in combination with beefier WP front forks which I just need to get serviced - they came off another 100GS so straight fit.

Now somewhere at some point I read or heard that the R100GS bevel drive will fit the 1100GS swingarm without any mods. Is this true?
Does it solve the issue with lacing the rear wheel as you then run your standard R100 rim instead of a 1100 rim?
Do you need to use shaft adaptors front and rear to work with above setup or just on the gearbox side?

If someone can point me in the right direction that would be great!
