Can anybody tell me the exact distance between the swinging arm, as the zxr 400 i bought came in boxes. I started builing it up this week only to find the rear wheel, spacers and caliper carrier provided do not all fit on the spindle when in the swinging arm. I did think that maybe i was given the wrong spacers, but looking at pictures of rear spindles for sale on ebay it looks like i have the correct spacers. So im wondering if maybe the swinging arm has been squashed in some way. hopefuly this makes some kind of scence to somebody.

Have a look on the rear schematic on the handbooks available on the front page.

mate there is a spacer that goes on the inside of the cush drive, are you trying to put it on the wrong way round? on the outside?
