    Vintage FinishLine 24" Drag Axle w/ PHOTO'S

    What would a NEW and never installed vintage Finishline steel drag axle for a '81-'82 250R be worth?

    I had a +4 Finishline axle for the 85 Tri-Z I was building a few years ago.I traded it off with an extra Z because I couldnt find any castle nuts to work.

    But a new one for an 81-82 250r??????Hmmm probably not much???

    You can also get hard to find castle nuts at most machine shops.

    That thing is SMALL!!!!!!!!!! What would it be used for? A weapon under the truck seat??? Definitly unique at that. Do you plan to use it?

    Straight line DRAGS!

    A weapon!?! It's not big enough for a weapon

    I got it with a lot of vintage extras when I bought the Frank's 3 wheelers.
    I thought about using it, it would be perfect in the '82 w/ the CR 480, but decided not to use it. I'm going with a standard length for general riding. Could you imagine pitching it sideways with that axle?

    You could pitch it sideways on its side!!! Ya a straight drag I guess,but man it is short! Still something very cool,and you truely dont see those everyday! Might have to use it for wall candy..
