Ian - I am using a 1998 and 1999 for 2 projects. Both are the same. Since they have been EZ to find, I have not had to expand my search to other applicable years.
I am getting busier and have not cut the frame out of the way at this time, but expect to accomplish this by end of next week. At that time I will work on my adaptation of the pivot. I'll be happy to share what I find out.
Keep us informed of your progress

What year is that GSXR 600 swingarm?
I was planning on doing a conversion soon and I was just curious.

Also, how big of a rear wheel/tire can you go with on the GS1100 arm?
