Don, I think there is only somekind of maintenance crew there. You see a few cars there all the time, but it doesn't look like they ever finished the building. I had a friend that worked there some time ago, running some kind of robotic TIG welding machine. He got laid off shortly after he got hired.
1976 sorta stock GL 1000. 1997 VZ800 definitely not stock Suzuki Marauder. Ride em like you stole em!

The simple answer to this is - don't. The 1000 sleeves are only about 5mm thick so you would be left with a sleeve about 3mm. There is not enough alloy around that thickness (thinness?) of sleeve to support it in my opinion. The 1100 has more plus the 5mm sleeve
