What kind of "conversion" are you wanting to do? Many folks w/ banana seat F4i's want to go to the split seat like you have.

if you want a banana seat i can hook you up. if you are talking about undertails, i would suggest doing one that keeps the factory taillight

for a shorty exhaust just make your own. or get the scorpion one, i really like mine

Hey Tat. I think what you want is an undertail, not a conversion. Mine came with the "mud flap" cut off right under the lock mechanism, and a piece of sheet metal (galvanized) to cover the big hole left in the trunk that doubles as my license plate mount. You can come by and check it out if you want, I'd say we could meet up somewhere but I don't know if I really wanna ride in sub-zero temps. Anyways when the weather breaks, hit me up, we can go hit the twisties. lol Oh and I have a pimpbikes undertail for sale if ya want. Do a search on eBay to see pics of it.

Can the R1 swap be done?

Yes.

Is it a bolt-up swap?

No, be ready to do some fab work.
