nope you cant unless you have custom brackets welded on . unlike the gsxr's we dont have a spot for the swing arm spools to mount on to.

Don't necessarily have to get mounts welded on. You can take an aluminum block that fits exactly inside the swing arm and tap a hole in that, then drill a hole in the s/a so you can get the bolt thru and thread into the block. Thats what I did and its worked great. Just make sure the block is EXACTLY the right size to slide completely into the s/a.

they keep you from trashing the back end and work in unison with the front slider to keep the bike from getting more damage. just a nice thing to have if you can get one.
