    Yeah dude I suspect you aren't missing a thing and it should be hollow. I'd go to a bike shop and have a look at another one, to see if it looks like mine.

    Ok.. guy looked at my bike said the swingarm bolt was missing. I immediately freaked. When I looked I thought that the swingarm bolt was missing because it was hollow and I had no idea that it was. After going to look at another bike to make sure (and all i saw until yesterday all had solid bolts) I discovered that they were hollow. So my mistake saying swingarm, like I said I do not have the greatest amount of knowledge on this subject. Sorry to waste time.
