Swingarm swap

It probably would be a lot cheaper but the exhaust has actually dented the swing arm so that mark is there for good. Plus the bikes getting up to 30,000 miles now, so a new swingarm would only add to the value- less mileage can't be a bad thing.

You would need to get the the bush with it as 98/01 one  is shorter.

Sorry Unfazed, by 'bush' do you mean the main swingarm bushes or the rear spindle spacers? And if the later, wouldn't that imply the later model has a slightly narrower profile rim?

All rims and tyres sizes are identical,  the 98-01 models used two spacers, these were discarded in the 02/03 models, the internal bush was made longer and the bearing housing in the arm was changed to suit. The bearing are the same across the entire range
