You asked if there was a frame the same as a 750R1 not what the engine will fit.

All the air cooled 750 fours are based on the Z650, even the 750 Zephyr.
So any z650, z750 ,GPZ750 or 750 Zephyr frame will take your R1 engine. Minimal work to the front engine mount plates may be required on models which are rubber mounted .
