    86 ES swingarm ? not an 85 ????

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/HONDA...QQcmdZViewItem

    I was under the impression that the SX and ES used the same swingarms on the same years ?

    I know the 85 and 86 years were different.. but is this an 86 setup ?

    This is an 85 set up. The 86's had a removable right side section just like the 300 4-wheelers of the late 80's, this is one solid piece.

    this is what it should look like.

    there is no way to mount that thing to the frame with the tube in the way...

    The sx and es swingers are diffrent.

    The ES one is more solid I beleive.

    That first swingarm is definately a 1985 250es swingarm.
