When i pulled off my swingarm,   a few small shims quickly fell of the right side so i packaged them into a zipclock bag, then another set unexpectly fell out, except it landed on the right side of the bike and i have no idea if it came from the right or left.

is there a standard shimming pattern or will i have to re do it myself?

Nothing standard.

The DSS bikes always have at least one thick shim on the chain side...not sure about yours.

What's important is that you align the sprockets...

the rest is just filling space.

okay, maybe it was jut a freak of nature on how it fell then, because the set that i know came from the right are all thing, the would be left side shims that fell were all thick. ill use a laser and reshim it tomorrow. i completely make the beast with two backsed up the powdercoating on my wheels.
