[Ducati] 900SS Swingarm question

[Don Hill]

I know that the swingarm pivot, wheel, axle, and spacers will work. You may 
need different shims between the inside face of the swingarm and the motor. 
The shock and it's mounting hardware will be the same. It's been a long time 
since I've done that swap ... Does the rear caliper carrier have the same 
"anti rotation" setup? I know there's a pin on the inside of the swingarm 
...
Hope this helps at least a little ...
Don
