Suzuki RM400N 1979 Gears wanted
« on: July 30, 2012, 02:02:55 pm »
I have an RM400N 1979 and I need 3rd and 4th gear on the clutch side - any ideas welcome. 
Also does anyone know who can possibly recut the dogs on the original gears, preferably Melbourne area or can post out to anyone around Australia who can do this
Thanks guys!

A little info that may help, 3rd and 4th drive gears 'on clutch shaft' are the same gears for '76 RM370A thru to '80 RM400T ;)
