What kind of chain guides are you guys running with the stock swingarm and no skid plate? I have thought of making a mount but if there is something available I would like to take a look at it.

I run the TM Designs chain roller on my stock 05 swinger. For about 2 years now.

If anything ever hits it all you have to do is replace the bolts that hold it to the swinger. The roller it self survives fine.

And the bearings in it are the same type that are used in roller blades. So if they ever go bad just steal a set out of some old skates :P

I just put the TM Designworks Slide-n-glide kit (includes front slider, roller, and rear chain guide) on my 05. I haven't ridden with it yet. For those that have the TM rear slider, is the chain supposed to hit the rear sprocket at such an angle. Seems a little steep. I sent a message to TM asking for a picture but haven't received a reply. I took a couple of pics, does this look right?

I agree TM is the way to go! I have abused my in many possible ways and it stands up.
I think it will be fine just check it to make sure.
