Question regarding the 84-85 kxt250 swingarm

[250rBeast]

I've located a very nice swingarm intended for the 84-85 tecates. It appears to be either a stock one that has been extended or an aftermarket, I am not certain. It is in excellent condition, it appears to have a chromoly type finish. Could someone who owns one of these machines post some measurements and a photograph of their swingarm? I would like to know the length, width, and whatever other significant features to look for in a stock arm. I am pretty positive that the one I found is not stock but I would like to ascertain that first. If it turns out to be something nice I will pick it up and offer it for sale since I don't own any Kxt's. It is definately clean, worthy of going on a restored or well maintained bike. Thanks for the assistance.

do you happen to have a pic of it? it is easy to tell a stock kxt swinger.

[scooterroo]

if your selling it, perhaps we could talk deals? like what would you ask for it, would be nice to have a extended swinger on my bike.

heres a couple shots of mine, totally stock, except i cut of the tabs that the guards bolt up to on the sides.

I have seen the franks and champion swingers before, it isn't one of those. What I am looking for is measurements of a stock one to compare then go from there. Length,width, etc. Perhaps some close-up shots of the stock unit as well, thank you. Tomorrow I will go back to compare with the one I found.

Maybe its a Westcoast or an aluminum Calfab. (super rare)

The stocker is easy to tell. Its a poor excuse for a swinger with gaps between surfaces and welds that are surrounded by spatter.

[BLAZERONE22]

16 1/2 center of pivots to top carrier holes is what the stock one is...

That has to be the ugly red headed step child of swingarms, IMO.

I stopped by on my way home from work yesterday and compared to the photo of the stock swinger provided by Blazer1 which I printed out. This swinger did not resemble any swingarm which any of you have posted. I did photograph it with my telephone, I then emailed myself the shots. If someone can provide their email, I will forward the shots and perhaps they can post them here. I don't have time to do it, or rather try to figure out how to.

Here ya go

No idea what the heck that is. Looks to be a very haggard 86/87 aluminum arm thats extended. Notice the offset UNI link mount.

[tecatecrazy]

yep that is an extended 86\87 arm

[BLAZERONE22]

I think this is an old calfab... I had it in my puter...

[BigGreenMachine]

Your right Blazer, I'd kill for one of those suckers. Meat picked one up cheap not long ago for his purple people eater. Again, those Cal-fabs are sick!
