I installed a new rear tire on my X1. When removing the wheel, I noticed the rear caliper bracket installation possition. There is an allan head bolt protruding that rests on the swing arm. (this is how it was when I bought the bike) When reinstalling, I noticed a slot on the inside of the swing arm that the allan hed bolt fits nicely into. So, my question is..should the bolt be resting on the top of the swing arm or placed in the slot on the inside of the swing arm. Thanx for any info.

Should be in slot. Will work fine on top unless you ride backwards.
