The shock is offset to the left on both of them to give exhaust clearances

In case you missed it, this will be the bit which causes a headache.

You might be better off trying a Bros swingarm, though you would have to use a direct-linked suspension so you'd need a compatible shock. At least that has the shock mounted in the centre of the arm. Maybe the earlier VFR (21,24) arms would be a closer fit?

The '21 has a conventional swingarm, the '24 single sider will only take a 140 sized tyre so you'd be going backwards regarding sports tyre choices etc, and would have to use the '24 wheel.
