Chasing one, my one was what looked to be good nick turned out to be brittle and broke, now I know there is aftermarket ones out there(they are black) but I got hold of NOS one for the rear and was hoping for the front one.

Thanks Wayne, Jas down Mexico way has an 84 rm125 which looks close just gotta check out part numbers. Bloody thing as only cracked the other day, if I have no luck I'll let you know mate, I'll be checking on your parts today to see what the go is.

Guys,
The RM 500E chain slider should be similar to a 84 and 85 RM 250E/F slider I reckon.I have never checked but I think the swingarms are similar.The RM 500 part is definite  NLA from Suzuki but do come up every once and a while on Evilbay.
I have a NOS one in my collection but will probably use a repo on my resto project given the scarcity of them.
Cheers

The problem with repo is they are nearly always different colour to NOS, that's why I was chasing one. The 465/500 are the same but dont think they will fit due to being different swing arms, Jas has a 84 125E one swingarm are very similar.

Agree the repos are ugly colours,young Jasons 125E slider will be interesting I wwill take a looom and see if I have any used 250E/F sliders in the shed and compare to my NOS 500E slider.

Yeah, you'd think the 85 125/250 should work as well.
Earlier 465/500 have a different shape to suit the different swing arm setup.
The 84 has a cutout to suit the different cushion arm lever position.

All his stuff seems a bit clunky.
You'd think he'd sell loads more if they were in the correct colour

I reckon mate.Hopefully he reads this forum and will see the feedback?

Fingers crossed boys, my belief is why put nos in rear chain guard then just whack a black or blue slider in front looks shhhhhiiiiiitttttt
