Done. Whilst the missus was at the park with the kid. Took the swingarm off for a good clean and grease up whilst I was at it.
I was nearly stumped as I needed an m10 x 75 bolt for the upper fixing, but found an m10 x 80 in wickes which fitted. I'll probably hunt down a high tensile bolt for that at some point.
Top hat spacers (cad design further up this page) did the job nicely. They had been turned slightly out of spec so had to take about quarter mm off each side to get the shock in. Can't grumble as they were knocked up for a pint!
