    DG swingarm

    Did DG make a aluminum swingarm for the early 250Rs? Does anyone have a picture if they did?

    Ya, that's why I'm asking. I am now the owner of that one . It's actually the first DG swingarm that I have ever seen. I have a couple of old 3-wheeling magazines from 1985, but none prior to 1985. In the ones that I have there's three page ads, but they never mention swingarms.

    DG did make swingers for the early R's. If I had a scanner I could post the ad form my 83 Dirtwheels.

    It will be taken care of, right along with my Westcoasts. If you look at my 1982 250R, it looks like I am sponsered by DG, I have a DG radial head, boost bottle, headlight guard, old school DG exhaust, and now the swingarm.

    I didn't plan on all of the DG parts, it just happened that way. I honestly was hoping for a Westcoast swingarm for my 1982 250R, but I'm guessing that won't be happening anytime soon. The DG fit the package in a good way, with all of the other DG parts.

    here's the link everybody. Dang...all you need now is a DG numberplate and some lawnmower tires and you can build yourself a genuine DG 1982 250R racer!

    $105 is a steal! I wouldn't sell mine for less than 3 times that.
    I've got one for an '81. I'll take some photo's tomorrow and show the ad from '82 in 3 wheelin magazine. Mine, as I think all were, is +3" over stock. Mine isn't anodized like your is. Nice thing is their aluminum, not steel like a franks, westcoast and the others, AND not everyone else has one.
