Your swinging arm/rear wheel: what size splindle do you have? its an ali swinging arm right what year? 17mm type but you are using the later wheel which offsets the sprocket 5mm or so, and you have a floating caliper. So how did you make all that lot fit together? Bitza

Exhaust is 45mm from MADASL, Termi cans are 45mm too.
Swingarm is ali and braced, AFAIK it's a Ducati part made either for Monster or 851/888? It was a tight fit, even for a 170 rear tyre and I did initially have problems with the chain 'bouncing' between tyre and brace (and eating into both) so I widened the brace by cutting the front and welding in some extra tubing.
Wheel is from a 5-spoke model SS/Monster and was a straight fit although I did battle with sprocket alignment (excessive chain wear due to rear sprocket being further 'inboard' than the front) which I now have solved (I hope) by creative shimming at both ends, not sure exactly what the cause was - wheel, swingarm etc.
Floating caliper was a straightforward fit, the bracket replacing the original. I got it from Japan (Aella Casuno) not sure if they still make them?
