25mm of shoulder & 20mm of thread. = 45mm overall.
Hope this is of assistance.

I thought it might be but wasn't 100% sure, it is the same as all the early Ks.
It's just the late Ks, F2 and Autos that have it longer on the drive chain side.

I can only guess Sean as I never measured it but I'm guessing the gearbox sprocket is about 5/8th of an inch further out on the shaft.
On all the later models, everything is cranked out on the near side.
I'll see if I can find a picture of the problems I had when I tried to fit a K swingarm into an Auto frame.

Sean, look at the angle of the left rear strut, this is what happens when you mix early with later model parts.
Can you imagine IF you could get a shock to fit, the problems it would have going up and down.

Was there any particular reason for using a A frame!?

It was all Automatic apart from the swingarm Sean.
