NHo damage to Akras or OEM exhaust, and surely the exhaust is weaker than the swingarm?
What the hell happened to my swingarm?

Make sure the exhaust bracket is facing the right way. I did the same and got a little scratch on mine as well. Exhaust facing inwards and bracket on wrong way around on mine.

Not the right side of the bike but they look exactly the same, does it look wrong?

Hi Super. Take the exhaust hanger off. With mine it was obvious I'd hung it wrong as where they meet isn't iexactly in the middle of the exhaust its just off centre. Then just swop it around. I'm assuming the carbon hangers are exactly the same as the stainless ones.
I had this on mine its the rivet on the exhaust that's done the damage. Mine never did it till I had the bike loaded up with luggage
I've had some spacers made at work to push the exhaust away from the swing arm 10mm I've fitted, I may have some 6mm ones floating about if you want them.
I also fitted some carbon covers to hide the damage mainly because I'm a tart
