Default Swingarm queries - Pointy

Evening Org,

Couple of quick questions for you.

I have a swing-arm off a pointy and want to confirm it is all straight and good to go on the bike. Any suggestions or measurements to work off?

Secondly, does it matter if it is off an "s" and i'll be putting it on a naked (they're different lengths are they not)?

Thirdly, how can I confirm which model it's from?

Cheers

J

I think they are all the same except if it is off a K3. I don't know the difference except in size (potentially, if the K3 are different)


I would compare it against your current swingarm in terms of checking/looking at how square it is.

You might wheelie easier and your chain could be a bit too long
