Swingarm pivot and shims

Also the shaft I have is obviously for a narrower swingarm so that will be sold of at some point as it was brand new in with the bike parts. Need to see about getting the correct part now

Shims should be available at various suppliers, there was one linked to in another thread recently; https://springfasteners.co.uk/produc...shers-din-988/

Otherwise, I've got a few in my spares along with a 900 swingarm spindle that maybe long enough (264mm) depending on whether your swingarm is standard Monster width or wider 851/888 width as was my old one? also got spare end plugs and snap rings following my recent swingarm swap, if it helps.
