Default Question on Swing arms for Honda TRX 250 R

I would like to put on a chrome alloy swing arm but don't want to pay out the butt for it. What would be better, forking out the money buying one used or new, or building one?

I could build one just worried how it would turn out. If I did what would be the best way do go?

Here is a picture of my Quad.

What length you looking to get? Hit up Tim@ Stellar, he's fabing R swingers now. He'll cut you a good deal.......

If you are anything like the rest of us perfection is the only way. So it would be quit expencive to build your own, lots of scraped material). Also with a bought new one you have a better confidence feel of it not braking on you. If you want to look at some diffrent ones check out stellar and quadcustoms. We are a dealer for both so I can get you some prices if you know the length and style you want.

+6 over a stock length 86-87 swinger seems way too long for a quad that looks like its set up for mx/trail. I would wouldnt go over a +3 if you want to keep it pretty "ridable" but thats just me.

A +4-5 would be ideal for the dunes, mines a +5 '88 style(= +4 86-87 style) and its very dunable. You have enough power to run a +6 if that's what you want too........
