I figured I would post up a few pics of this rare swingarm, for those who have not seen one, before it leaves my posession forever. Don't worry, It's going into very good hands. I will not post up who bought it or how much they paid. They can do that if they want.
I got this swingarm about six years back from a 200X purchase that was supposedly an ex-racer bike. More than likely a privateer.
The pics of the trike are the infamous RacerX, which is now being tore down and parted out. Please don't ask for parts here or in p.m.'s. I will list up parts individually in the classifieds. Just wanting to show the trike one last time. It had SRP low pro fiberglass reproduction fenders (which are sold to the same individual as the swingarm), durablue +4 or maybe 6 axle for the first gen 250R, a built to the hilt motor with stroker crank, WB stage II grind cam and some other goodies, 30 mm mikuni carb (bored to 31mm), supertrapp exhaust and some other goodies I fail to recall right now. The tank was custom made from a nice 200X stock tank and is fully functional. Powder coated frame and alot of chrome look parts. Also a custom shaved front tire.
Anyone who has seen this trike run can attest that it will flat out smoke a stock 200x, blow right past a 350X and keep up with some liquid cooled 250R's. I'm gonna miss this tirke.
Enjoy.

A few more pics.
Very cool part. I know a guy who has a cal-fab for a 200x but he won't part with it. Its on a very old astro converted 200x with some really cool race parts.

I never thought I would ever part with this one either, let alone part the whole trike but things happen and life turns U in new directions. Bills gotta get paid, economy sucks, yadda, yadda. I will ensure that every part of this trike goes into very good hands.
That sucks man. I hate hearing about things like this.

None of my business. But. Why did you part this? I would have to sit and think awhile on a price,but would have for sure gave you Way over $2000 for it running. I realize you will get a lot ,and already have,for the parts,but ouch! Would have been a nice one to see stay together! And he could have had that Cal fab<i wouldn't have cared! Just curious that's all! I only actually RODE one that was that bad. It was a Powroll Mickey had done. And most that have never ridden something like this laugh when told that it will take X's and R's. But they sure will !

I'm going to keep close watch over them parts. I see stuff I might want :naughty:
Really sucks that you have to part with it. Oh well, there's plenty of other fun toys out there, right? ;)
Got a build thread on the bike?

Trust me, I'm prolly gonna go more than double the $2000 you estimated parting it. It's a pile of cash to me, kinda like a savings account. Except my profits (or earnings if you will) will far exceed the investment.
Also, I have spoken to mickey via the forums and he says based on the mods I told him about this motor that it was more than likely done by him/them. Althoug without his getting his hands on it, this cannot be verified 100%.

I wasn't estimating $2000 parting it!! I know way better,was just saying,as always, If you add up your time,every part,the cleaning ,boxing,shipping etc.. ANYHOW! Yes,Powrolls had there own "FEEL" to them,,Very Solid,,hard to explain,,like they had 400cc. Sparks,,never broke,TC,fastest,,always broke! Powroll,best of both worlds! good luck w the parting!!

Yea, I know. I was meaning that if (and it's a big IF) I sell it whole, I would probably be lucky to get more than $3k for it, unfortunatlly, in pieces, it will bring $4k+. I could get a few nice 200X's or a complete 350X for what I got for the two parts sold so far.
When I part a machine for one, It is never a complete original machine, This part out, like my 250R part out, will go to help make 10-20 more bikes complete/redone/restored. In this community, luckily, most of the parts we trade/sell or what have you get refurbed and used for other machines and rarely got wasted.

Wow sad day to see Racer X go into parts. On the up side that 30mm Carb would be perfect for my Powroll Stroker :)
