Dumb question - I am replacing my swingarm bearings with the Pivot Works single bearing. I assume you center the bearing in the swingarm, correct? I was thinking of the loading on the swingarm bolt, and it might be better if it was pressed in to the factory depth of 6mm from the outside.
I was surprised at how much less bearing surface there was compared to the two OEM bearings.

Sorry, no clue. I've only used the two bearings per side before.

Re: Pivot Works Swingarm Bearing Location
Yeah same here. Every pivot works kit I've used has been the dual bearing (same as OEM) design.
