Hello there
Has anyone fitted pick up lugs for their DSS. I have just bought some and there seams to be no factory thread for me to fit the lugs to. Can you tell me can or should I fit them and where should they go.
Thanks in advance
Don

you mean spools?

Pit bull makes some inserts you can drill and insert in the swingarm

About on centerline, far enough forward of the axle that your stand doesn't interfere with the axle/nut.

Try to drill a good, smooth hole, no raggedy edges to start a crack.
Drill small, and use a tapered hand reamer to get it just big enough to slip the rivnut into.

This is the other part (the bobbin if you will)


i dont think it is critical where you put it...near the rear axle where you have room for it (and not blocking access to the axle nuts.

FYI- I was taking with pitbull about these and they said if you want to ship them your swingarm, they will weld the spools on for no charge...
just a thought.
