Swingarm pivot and shims

Hi All,

I got my swingarm installed at the weekend and found that the pivot shaft is narrower than the width of the swingarm itself. This may be ok as I can see from the manual that there should be a circlip and a rubber plug in there but mine (early style) does not have a groove for a circlip to locate in. Can anyone shed any light on this for me please?

Also the sides of the swingarm which contact the rear engine mount still have powder coating on them which may / may not be a problem. Currently the large spacers are in with no shims and there is no play, but if I were to remove the plastic I'd guess I'd end up with approximately a 2mm to then remove with shims - thoughts on this too please?

I've taken multiple images but Postimages keeps telling me that my jpg's aren't recognised despite me doing nothing different
