I've noticed on the last few tire changes that the swingarm(pinches) inward when tightining rear axle..with bike off the ground,axle in and axle nut loose,there is aprox1/16 to 1/8 of side to side play if you were to grab wheel,I would put an additional spacer in to make up for the play ,but dont want to push rear tire to 1 side and afect alingment, is this normal to pinch swingarm when tighting axle??

A slight amount of play is normal. Anything more than 1/8" I would be concerned.
