Mine does without issue. The only difference is that I have the aluminum swingarm, and you appear to have the steel swingarm.

I'll have to wait and see till I finally get it on the road and start riding.

Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

I'd like to get the alum. swingarm to save some weight and gain some bling, but not sure how much weight savings there actually is.

The weight difference between the steel and Al swingarms is essentially imperceptible, in fact, I think some of the Al swingarms are actually heavier than the steel ones, however, they do look nicer, and the Al arms are more rigid than the steel arms. If you really wanted a weight comparison I could do one for you, I've got 2 Al arms and a steel one in the garage.

Where can I get a set of these, I'm tall and want a higher bike. Also would it make sense to raise the front a little too to compensate, or don't mess with it?

Try raising the rear first.
