Wow! That is one sweet looking bike. Don't know for sure, but probably based on a Valkyrie?!?

From the few pics, the swing arm area of the frame looks to be from a 1000, but I can't really tell if the swing arm itself is from a 1000. IIRC, the output shaft of the 1500 is offset farther from the centerline of the engine, and obviously the engine is significantly longer, so considerable fabrication would be required throughout. It would be a fun challenge, no doubt!

I’ll bet that doesn’t get tested at speed. It’s very clean, but I can’t see much in the way of frame reinforcements that early Wings were known to suffer from. If it has a 77 final drive, it would scream. There have been a few 1500’s stuffed into early wings over the years. Never heard of how well they performed.

There's a vid out on the webby somewheres that show it running, and the Honda emblems on the tail swing around for turn signals...

From the vid it looks like a GL1000 rear drive.
