Anybody have a DG swingarm on a 1974 CR125? What is the length between the center of each eyehole on the shocks(what size shocks do I use)? Thanks for your help!

I think you misunderstood. This is a DG swingarm (forward mounts). 14 1/4 inch shocks are the stock length which would "stinkbug" the back end. Anybody else out there running a DG swingarm?

Yep didn't know it was a forward mount. Stinkbug the back end & probally some serious swapping up front.

Try asking Scott over at Vintage Factory or Bill Clem. I can get you an e-mail address for Bill.

Both Elsinore experts in my opinion!

I've got Scott's. I know Bill has a new shop and a new phone #, neither of which I have. Do you have his email address?
