For the wheel, from the outside to the outside of the bearings is approximately 144.5MM.
If you have the correct wheel it should be stamped R-1158 on the hub.
The four stroke engine: That's one stroke for producing power and three for wearing the engine out.

Oh, sorry, that is where the rear wheel bolts on.
Turns out I have a swing arm for a 86.
I'll try to get you some dimensions on Monday or Tuesday.

From the inside of one bearing to the inside of the other bearing should be approximately 4 5/8".
The bearings are centered.
Here is some other dimensions as well.

The four stroke engine: That's one stroke for producing power and three for wearing the engine out.
