Anyone tried it?
Would it even fit?
I like big singles, but it would have to be an improvement to have the twin or the four in the heart of such nice unit...

I've looked at this before. The SZR frame and swingarm are very similar to TZR. The RZ500 motor can be squeezed into a TZR frame, so I believe it could be done!
Check out this link for frame info:

The TZR frame needs mods unless you're going to have the engine sitting at a very strange position.

Here's a mob in UK who fit RZ500 motors to 3MA frames:

I was going to say the 3MA would be the natural choice as its already designed for underseat pipes. The later model even had USD forks. Shame to violate such a beautiful bike though, love the look of those.
One of those and an NS400R are still on my wish list.
