I picked up an aftermarket swingarm at a flea market for my R.(89style)
i dont know the brand. but it looks new. Sivervein powder coat new bearings. I dont think it was ever used. anyways i went to install it. and the powder coat rubs the back off the cases in one small spot.the swingarm moves freely but i just dont trust it. in case i ever blow my bearings. any one ever have the same trouble? should i grind out the swing-arm for more clearence. or risk my cases and hope its just thick powder coat?
