Will a 02-05 monster (no hoop) swingarm fit a 99 m750 (hoop style)? machine cases?
Do some of the 02-05 monsters have a rear shock with reservior(piggyback style)?

don't know if the swingarm will fit, but I do know that the S4(non R) with the dual sided swingarms had shocks with attached reservoirs.

What would I have to do to use the showa adj. rear shock with reservior off of 900ss (piggyback style) on my m750 frame/swingarm with m900 headers? 02-05 swing arm swap? machine cases?
...my m750 has a sachs unit

The SS shock will be valved and sprung much softer than what you need.

AFAIK, the 02-05 SBK-style swingarm will fit your cases, but that's about it.
Axle diameter is different, and your rocker location won't work.
