Chain Guard
 
Marques,

If you come up with something simpler, please let us all know. I too, don't fancy trying to bore a hole in the swingarm, etc.

Thanks.

The problem is that the swingarm is tapered. a clamp would inevitable start sliding towards the rear wheel. But you could probably bodge something up that uses the hole on the inside of the arm to keep a clamp in place.

If the arms thick enough ... just drill & tap it..

Wouldn't that render the chain guard useless in the event of an incident.

There are very good threads on exactly how to do this by stoic bloke. Just search forum under 'chain guide'.

Very simple really. KTM guide sawn through at top, angle metal drilled appropriately, two holes in bottom of swinging arm in a suitable place, two bolts (can put nuts on through giant mud-catching hole in arm), and put it all together. Takes a bit of time but well worth the peace of mind.

Stoic worked it out. And it is good imo.
