I don't know if it will work. The F1 frame is steel and I think the 600RR frame is made from aluminum. You would have to fabricate some kind of bolt on mounting point to mount the new subframe. I think it would be easier just to play around with the bodywork versus adding the new subframe. I have a couple pictures of a modified F1 cane. Email me at cjgoals@yahoo.com and I will send you the pictures. Good luck with your project.

I agree, just modify the stock frame. If you did cut it off to fab a bolt on setup for the subframe, be sure to weld in some braces so the frame doesn't tweak with its back half chopped off

Anything is possible if you have the time, patience, tools and materials. I didn't add skill because that's goes without saying for any pursuit.
