Aftermarket kit Swingarm, Who made it?

[HairyJR]

While out borrowing a buddies flat bed trailer, noticed this swing arm setting in a pile of junk on his neighbors property. I know it would fit an early 185, 185s or possibly 200. Can anybody give me a better idea who made it?

I can tell you twenty brands of swing arm it is not..the Y shaped center brace is rather unique and the key to figuring out its origin if it is really that important to you.

Can you get measurements of the swingarm bolt length and width? Does he want to sell it? If the price is right I'd buy it just to have it...

"Jmoozy27" as seen in pic's I posted it shows some severe chain wear/rub, was found setting next to this neglected jewel I'm trying to purchase from the owner. The 200 has a bolt on rear suspension kit with a rectangular boxed steel swingarm installed right now. Been well used as seen with the worn rear sprocket teeth. Will measure and post when and if purchased, I'm pushing the owner to sale.

"John" some shop here in SOCAL made the unknown swingarm and 200 kit.

He needs to just give it all to you so you can save it from it's slow death. I'm interested in the findings nonetheless.

You have a PK bolt on Kit !!!!! and the tree could be a HPATC !!!!!:Bounce:Bounce

I'm leaning towards PK on the swing-arm. The triples are HPATC . And the wheels are PCCC's 4/130 . Nice score HJ .:w00t:

Save those wheels and sell them to me! They would look good on my pauter.

They have been on there for a while now for a reason. I don't remember what they are listed for now but I know it's more than I'm willing to pay lol. It's not a show bike.

Well the owner’s son doesn’t want to sell the suspended 200. I really didn’t want the trike but wanted the PCCC wheel halves. They were 3/100 bolt pattern. Owner sold me his spare set of PCCC's tan colored wheel halves with Carlisle Dirt Boss tires mounted.

Now back to the original topic of swingarm, found another project on the property that the swingarm came off of. Looks like someone tried to convert a 185s (not sure) trike to a go cart but the original frame had a welded on rear suspension kit. I don’t believe either project have any chance of ever being revived, just going to rust away. Who knows he might change his mind and call me......

Funny how people get attached to their junk. Me included, of course.

Some neat stuff in those pics!

That's just a crying shame to let those rare parts rot away.

Save that exhaust at least.
