Mounting the Swinging arm and getting the Bike Rolling.

Im sorry for the late post, but I have been hard at work and neglecting my camera. In the last week I have managed to source the bearings for the swinging arm and press them in using an M8 rod and some thick nylon spacers.
The suspension linkages were given one last clean and regreasing, then it was all bolted together. The new hagon rear shock bolted in a treat and looks really neat. The torsion bar for the rear caliper was a tight fit with all he new powdercoationg but eventually it slipped on and the rear caliper has also been mounted.

 I opted for new nylock nuts as well just to make it look even fresher.
 The powdercoating against the polished wheel slider looks great and its not even had a final buffing.
Im glad I painted the rear caliper centre it would of let down the rear end massively. Plus all the new stainless bolts set it off well.
