Hello,
we are restoring a cr125r, 1980, but we are not sure which swingarm is really original; we do have 2 different ones. Who can help??? Unfortunately we don't have a Clymers at this moment...

Thanks[/img]

Try Cycle Stop Racing or Scott Steger at Vintage Factory?

the original 80 CR125 swingarm was a banana shaped steel unit that used more forwar mounted 15.75 inch long (eye to eye) rear shocks and was much beefier looking than the 79 straight shape steel swingarm which used m17.5 inch long shocks-does this help?also the 1980 had a different wheel spacer setup than 79 -one was wider than the other -which way i dont recall
