Default Assistance from Rocker Dudes

Could one of you good fellows grab me a couple swingarm measurements for the stock swingarm (for 240 tire)? I'm looking for the inside measurement at the rear axle (swingarm) and the outside measurement at the swingarm pivot bolt (swingarm).

You can probably see where I'm going with this. I want to see if the stock Rocker swingarm will fit my frame...

If no one else comes up with it, I'll see if I can figure out a way to measure after my wife gets the bike home from work tonight.

At least I think it is..... maybe I better measure that too.

There's no way to measure straight across with the bike assembled, and I don't have a monster set of calipers, so consider these to be ball-park measurements, maybe within 1/4 inch:

It looks to be pretty close to 12 1/2 inches for both dimesions.

The wife turns out to be a 320mm.

Many thanks man. Close enough for ball-parkin'.

Your wife ask why you were measuring her ***? lol.

I explained before measuring, because we all know that such things can be very risky.

But coincidentally, I happened across a display of "Skinny Girl" pre-mixed bottled cocktails at the liquor store today, so I had a bottle waiting when she got home, presented before I measured.

She's up for it, so we'll try to do something over the weekend.
In the meantime, here's an old shot of her practicing in a parking lot.

Alright you perverts, here's a picture of my wife's butt.
I'm new at uploading photos here, so I guess you have to click on them to make them full-size.
