possibly if you were to change all the pivot bolt, bearings and bushes back to the 125 size or alternatively bore the frame out which may lead the the bigger arm interfering with the rear of the engine but once that's done you'll have to get to work on the rear end and fit RM400 sized bearings into the 125 wheel as the 400 runs a bigger axle so technically , yes it is possible ;D a total woftam ('waste of f*ckin' time and money' for our vintage alien friends) but if one really wanted a 400 arm on a 125 then it's not out the realms of possibilties. Nothing is!! Is the cup half full or half empty? actually I ask the same about my head sometimes but I wonder if that's not just a total void as I don't really have the capacity to think that logically ::) do you have a 400C arm caps 8)

Chris, check the pivot width also ....250-400 arm is a lot bulkier( I think )
-
oh yeah it probably is bigger..it's not a practical or easy swap but I was just stating it could be done if one really really felt the need :D otherwise no, it's not even worth contemplating ;)

i found a 370 thor arm on evil bay was just seeing if it would be of any use to me
-
i will check what the fox suzuki book says but im pretty sure they would have specified separate Thor arms for 125 and 370
-
i missed out any way so no need to now

250/370 Thor arm is different to 125 B and 125 C is also different arm to the 125B. all are for use with 17.5" shocks. no listing for 125 A but there might be in the fox catalogue. earliest i have is 78
