    Anything can be made to fit if you have enough know how or money.

    You certainly seem to have enough cash the way you buy bikes lol

    Thought the 08 had a longer swing arm for better handling, might upset the geometry

    Daz,the simple answer is no (I looked into it when I had my trick 07 s.arm) they are basically the opposite in fitting design(as in everything that fits around on 1,fits inside on the other).

    but anyting can made made to fit essentially
