The stud with the M10 MF hass a little boss on it to accomodate the extra increase in sprocket offset from the engine.
This boss can be seen on the pic i added, the other pic is from the topside of the K7 swing arm.

If you will i can make better pics of the frame but the mounting should be cut of and relocated with a little boss.

I would like to see more pics and / or a writeup of this process if at all possible. I'm about to swap an F2 swingarm onto my K7 and I would like to know what all I need in order to make that happen.

This is a wonderful discussion.  I did not realize the offset on the F2 swing arm was more asymmetrical than the K swings.  That knowledge alone is money in the bank.

Peace and grease,

The K7 has a wider sprocket carrier than the earlier models. Because, I guess, it has a wider rear wheel/tyre. If this is used, surely it would compensate for the offset maybe?

If You can't fix it with a hammer, You've got an electrical problem.

Its not really any help to me as I live in Denmark - and everything shipped from outside EU the danish customs claims 25% + handling fee.
They do have a danish distributor but its really expensive (tax+ handling fee + earnings).  >:( >:(
