Mine is a '99 model, 20k miles and having seen the horror stories decided to upgrade with the 12mm nut recently. When I opened the lock washer I didn't need a socket I was able to take the nut off with my fingers!!!

Thank you for that link Fazersharp, sobering thought! I took the arm off this afternoon and offered up the original (Fazer 600), same problem it was out of line and would only be forced on which would put a lateral force on the swing arm lug. I've refitted the TRX arm with an alloy spacer between the "jaws" of the arm, a longer bolt and located it outside the flange on the caliper bracket. I'm happy that this will do the trick. Thanks again for your help. I'm trying to post some pics to show what I've done.

FZS600 Fazer / TRX 850 Torque arm

Hi all, I've just done the TRX rear brake caliper upgrade and I'm very pleased with the result - excellent rear braking efficiency and superb sensitivity. My one concern is that the TRX torque arm doesn't line up accurately between the hanger and the swing arm mounting points. To get it to fit I had to force it on and therefore it must be under some sideways stress. Any comments or suggestions would be welcome.
