Hi
anyone got any photos they could mail me showing the gap between the pipe and the swing arm. Have got about 3mm, seems a bit tight, and I had to jiggle the end can into place. Am a bit worried it not quite set as it should be, and maybe under a bit of tension. Dont want it splitting. Any tips, phtos etc much appreciated

cheers

57 = fag paper or a slightly smoother and more silvery swingarm on the weld :D :D I'd take photos but there is no gap to see.

54, should be easy, 3mm is loads of clearance :) watch the lower rear right hand fairing don't touch the pipe, it melts the fairing :D
