Hi, the rebuild of my Sherpa 198A is progressing 'well' but I have a question on what is the expected / acceptable swing arm free-play and 'stiffness'. I have replaced the nylon/alloy swing arm bearings and spindle with new items, but find that with the newly powder coated frame and new replacement rear engine mount (all from In Motion) its all a very tight fit - requiring the rubber mallet persuader to fit! The result is that although nice and smooth, the swing arm does not freely move under its own weight (a rough measure I've used on road bikes with needle bearings) but requires some force (approximately a 1kg weight placed on swing arm) to move even without the swing …

I need a pair of alloy mudguards for my 1973 Bultaco Alpina and was going to order a pair from Rickman as they can supply a pair for £70 plus postage. But they have two different widths for the rear mudguard, 5" "C" profile and 5.5" "D" profile. Am I right in thinking it's the 5.5" wide one I need?
