Ok, so the dude selling it said it was bolt on but of cource the sprockets did not line up...fekker...
So with limited tools i used a flex cutter (free translation) and made a 6mm distance for the front sprocket and all good....although crude...
Question, should you keep it this way or machine anything alse??
...big blob of loctite on that nut now!!

Did you move the sprocket out by 6mm?, and If so did you not try turning the rear sprocket around. What is a flex cutter?

My rear sprocket is dished, so turning it round makes it nearer the wheel.

Was on the original wheel, however I believe trixynut had dealt with dished discs before.
Will look tomorrow, as got to work now.

I know that the stock disc is dished but i don´t want to be locked to a 39 one...BUT if that make´s me able to screw in the front sprocket nut i guess it´s worth it....

Only sprocket I could find with a recess to allow flipping to move it inwards was AFAM. They do a standard TRX one, plus a 39? tooth one for the TDM900 which fits.

I´ve been looking at some pictures of the swinger as well....it seems as many has the nut on the opposite side to the TRX...does that make any difference?
