Refitting The Swingarm - Ducati Monster 796 Workshop Manual

Rear swingarm
The maximum permissible end float is 0.1 mm.
When a 0.10 mm feeler gauge or shim can only be inserted with difficulty, there is no need to install any further shims.
Otherwise, use the two available shim sizes (0.20 mm and 0.10 mm) to obtain the specified end float.
Example:
Measured end float
0.10
0.20
0.50
Important
The thicker of the two shim packs must always be installed on the right-hand side of the swingarm.
The thinnest shim should always be installed so that it is contact with the swingarm.
NEVER install 0.1 mm shims on the left-hands side.
The left-hand side shim pack shall be max. 2 mm thick (1.8+0.2 max.).
Side-to-side movement of the rear end of the swingarm must be below 1 mm.
