my Z650 has gap near the caliper bracket

[BadBackGT]

Guys, is this normal on Z650 or actually common?
I'm talking about the rear caliper bracket.
Does anyone else have this weird gap between the bracket and that stopper on the swingarm?

'Cause of that wiggle room, sometimes when I hit the brakes, I hear this knocking noise coming from the back of the bike.
Anyone else in the same boat, or know what's up with that? Cheers!

Yeah, that's quite normal for the Z650 rear caliper bracket. The knock is also normal, it's just the bracket flexing a little bit. If it's bugging you, you can add a spacer or tighten the bolts.
