So… I checked this again measuring movement of the primary case vs the frame (the side plates are off). Most of the movement with very little pressure appears to be in the swing arm pivot. With more vigorous pressure I see slight movement of the primary case, but minor compared to the almost loose movement of the swing arm itself. Again, it's only 1.5 mm at the end of the arm by the gauge but noticeable.
If the wicks are dry, then I'm back to the options of, a) leave it until worse then replace the bushes and/or drill in to the end cap to fill with 140 wt…
This became an issue while looking to drop the engine/tranny mounted together. The book says you have to remove the swing arm and I don't see a way around it.
