Does the CRF50/XR50 share the same swingarm with the CRF70/XR70?

[ThunderChicken]

Can the OEM Honda CRF50/XR50 swingarm be used on a CRF70/XR70?

I've got a bidder who bought one from me for her son's bike and she didn't realize that he's got a 70.

I don't know because I've never parted out a 70.

Any help would be appreciated.

The swingarms are interchangable between models, but, using a 50 swingarm on a 70 frame will not allow you to use the 70 rear wheel, which is 12". I have used 70 swingarms on 50 frames, a stock 70 rear shock must be used, and the rear brake panel moved in closer to the rear axle to allow the 50 rear wheel to work properly. The 70 swingarm is also 2" longer than a 50 one, and so is the 70 rear brake rod.

Thanks for the reply. Good to know for future reference. She just blindly bid on the item thinking it would bolt up to her son's CRF70. I'll just give her a refund and relist.

Thanks again.
