Instead of buying a machined bushing to put thru the motor/pivot bolt hole that will run you about 100$, you can go get a 5/8 bolt, approx. 11" long from a local hardware store and use that. You will have to drill out your swingarm sleeves, and the 2 bearing caps. Pick up a good drill bit, 21/32 is the size you will need, and get some cutting fluid because those swingarm sleeves are hardened and you will ruin a 20$ bit in a sec if you are not careful.
The benefit of the 5/8 bolt is not only cheaper, but MUCH stronger than the stock bolt.
You also have to drill out the frame, relax, its not gonna hurt it.:D
