hey .i have a bolt that goes into the back of my swingarm, directly back and looks like it will hit the carrier so it will not turn and loosen the chain. i have a problem at random times with my chain loosening. i noticed the bolt was gone,(i bought the quad with it gone, i think, and never noticed) so i ordered a knew one. then just for kicks i called my local shop to ask them if the bolt was rounded at the end so it would not dig into the carrier. they said "no no it is a water drain bolt, your swingarm is stretched." i didnt believe this, because the 300ex swingarm only has 2 pincher bolts vs many witch have 4. it doesn't seem like 2 pincher bolts could stop the carrier from turning. does anyone know what it is for?
