Yes, interesting too that the contact marks are on the centre right of the hugger, none on the left, and Donny is a very right biased circuit. Puzzling though, since the hugger and the tyre are both mounted on the swinger, I would have expected the relationship between the two to remain constant. The exhaust mark could just be proximity to the pipe, or maybe under hard acceleration the rear suspender compresses and contacts the hugger. A gnats cock on the preload may prevent that.
