i have a 1989 just for ref

i needed a chain guard on my bike,,so i bought a 1989 guard off ebay,,and got it,,and it doesnt fit,,maybe the seller(a motorcycle salvage seller) sold me the wrong year,,or i have a diff year swing arm

would anyone be able to tell me by lookin at there bike,,to compare it to mine?

and the mounts looks the same for the chain guard?

i suppose the PO swapped the rear swing arm out for some reason

i found another chain guard that looks like the mounts will line up,but just wanted to know,in case i sell this chain guard,if the seller doesnt take the return

thanks

That is a 90+ swingarm. The 89 swinger is a square tube swinger all the way to the pivot point. There is no tapering out like yours.

+5 on that my 92 looks the same but the chain guard looks like an RD chainguard.

Rage Digital's shock swap pictures show the swingarm to be the same as yours PM him he could tell you which arm he was using.
