You'll be ok,is that a 500 engine? if so the biggest issue will be  a rod,if its a 465; rods are still available ex suzuki pretty much everything else is easy to buy via Ebay or Suzuki.
Enjoy i'm jealous!

Allison - don't hesitate to chase Suzuki - you will be surprised how much is still available NOS and how low the price is - sprocket covers still available for instance plus a lot of the plastics.

Craig - wasn't it Steve Hunter you put me onto in Melbourne?  What shop was it?  Their service was excellent and they didn't mind chasing old bits for me.  Quick supply and delivery.

cheers

Yeah Craig bought the NOS stuff and I bought all the stuff that needed a million $$$$ spending on it, not much left really.

However quite a few parts are shared with the 250. Or from Vintage Suzuki/
