Whilst putting the bike back together I noticed another small issue which could potentially become a big one

Look at the pics below

This first one is a general view from the rear with the wheel removed

Now look closer. You will notice how the rear mudflap is eating away at the swingarm. This could in the long run be rather disasterous
I happened to discuss this with Funacide earlier and he noted that he had noticed this on his bike as well

The solution would be to grind away a piece of the mudflap to give more clearance

You can thank me later  :biggrin:
