You can buy an adapter that mates the 1100 shaft.
The 1100 uses the same swing arm mount a the previous model.

Fitting the 1100/1150 swinging arm is the easy bit. The hard part is sorting out the offset in the back wheel.

is that less of an issue if you use a 80/100GS final drive? Assume lack of disk makes the wheel sit naturally further right.

Adaptor available from TAG and SWT amongst others

 

[Rupsol]

is it linkage or PDS type direct mounting?

You can do it this way as well. The wheel still needs re-lacing though, I think

On that SWT bike it looks like the limit of the suspension would be determined by the angle of the lower link, and the angle of the UJ the rear of the paralever - there is probably a foot of space above the rear wheel which will never be used, except for photo opportunistic, that is.

It seems to use most of it
