Oooo... bad idea! Very unsafe.
Your rear wheel will most likely wobble and cause the bike to be unstable.

Bike won't be safe to ride. Can't leave bits off the bike in some places cause they don't want to fit. Chances are something is wrong if the wheel doesn't want to go back correctly. That needs to be resolved.

I bet the rear tire would not only wobble without the spacer but probably get jammed or wedged and lock up. VERY BAD.

Get a buddy to hold the wheel in place while you try and get everything lined up.

Spacer Swingarm Pic

Off another forum - Spacer got left out, wheel shifted and the sprocket bolts actually cut into the swingarm.

Riding without the rear buttoned up correctly is a bad idea. The F2 design takes some time and patience to get correct.

All parts are there for a specific reason. When you have taken it on/off a few times it is not that difficult. Mount it ASAP and have a safe ride.

Make sure your cush drive is installed correctly and pushed all the way on. I also find that using a thinner pipe temporarily through everything to get it aligned, then pushing the axle through makes it easier. Also, make sure the spacers are on the correct sides.
