g'day,

this is probably the wrong section, but i'll ask anyway.

i am caffing an 80 cb250rs and would like to know if an xl250s alloy swing arm will fit the cb250rs frame without any serious modifications( none preferably)

thanks

Personally, I don't have a clue.. Things I would look at though would be where/how the suspension attachs, how the swingarm attachs (bearing sizes, does it hinge off the motor etc).

I would assume it would take some work..

Hook into it with a grinder, and a Mig.
Ya know you want to.

Is the XL250S swingarm any better than the RS'?

This has a custom swinger on the back of a GB250 frame. It's got a CBR600RR rear wheel to match the CBR600RR front end! The exhaust is pure sex.

I believe the xl-swingarm is NOT made out of aluminium, so not any better than the RS-swingarm...please bring more light into the matter

i have seen different year model xl's some have alloy swingers some don't.
i'm trying to pull as much weight out of the lil beast as possible.

AFAIK the swingarms only became aluminium on the monoshock bikes. Could be completely wrong though.
