Dresda Swingarm

Anyone ever deal with one of these arms? I got one for my '75 z1 900 and wondered if it should have a spacer between the tapered bearing where it mounts to the frame. Anyone?

I bought a Dresda swingarm for my featherbed special, and yes, there were spacers outboard of the bearings between the frame and the bearings. Mine was for the Norton frame, but I'm sure Degen's basic design is used for all bikes.

Fossil, how about inboard of the bearings? Did it have like a long tube spacer between them?

I don't remember there being a spacer between the bearings. The bike was sold years ago so there's no way for me to check. Why not email or call Dresda?
