retro rocket knows a bit about this stuff try asking him. Ok ok ill not stir it up. I was going to do a swingarm mono on my 750 but i think im going to sell it now. But what i was looking at was a 86-88 gsxr swingarm. It is supposed to fit. The swing arm pivot are the same for the 750 and 550.

Well surprise surprise, i have one on one of my 750's although it is cut down as far as it can be cut and is set up for twin shocks, it is still almost 40mm longer than the 750's arm and far too long as a mono shock set up....This is on an F1 frame.

hmmm...I think the monoshock is fading, might just stick some fancy twins back on and end the pain.
thanks mick
