Does not matter as I want to fit it to a xl 500 frame.
Cheers Chopa

RM400C= steel
RM400N= alloy
RM400T=alloy
N and T have different chain guide and roller setups.
Therefore there all diferent, thats why he asked "what model".
Simple.
Cheers Big Ears.

note :  250 and 400   are the same arm's  in C2 - N - T

RM400C swingarms are made of aluminium, not steel, but look a lot different to the N & T model swingarms. Most guys that fit Suzuki swingarms to XT/TT 500 Yamahas use PE 250/400 swingarms, I think, because they are wider and go close to fitting straight in. But I am not sure what would be best to suit a Honda XL500. Maybe a KLX 250 swingarm would be worth measuring.

Stuffed up there didnt I. ....just waiting for the experts to sort it out!!

C model is different to N and T arms    C2 only applies to the 250 250b steel , 250C steel,  250 C2 and 400C aluminium banana arm , bigger version of those 125 C cheater arms  runs for cover 

400 N and t arms are straight and IMO ugly compared to the 400 C arms also N has a different chain guide system to T

I bought a couple of rollers home for the "pile" a couple of weeks ago. Not sure what this one it is but.

You know your yellow things Bill. That solves the mystery of no compliance plate. I just rubbed some of the thick house paint of the headstock to find the numbers and google checked them.
SUZUKI NUMBERS

what do ya know, RM400T 

[oldfart]

If they are Pe's  look on RHS as foot pegs are bolted on with brake pedal   T/X

[Mick D]

This is getting interesting, for me at least anyhow.

I have a spare PE400 motor stored (way out of town)in a mates lockup.

To save me going and getting it

Question? does anyone know if it would fit into this RM400T roller

Sorry about hi-jacking your thread Chopa

[LWC82PE]

Physically yes it will fit but you may have to tweek some engine mounts??? oldfart???

If you had a RM250T frame then yes it will bolt in no worries, im just not sure if engine mounts on RM400 differ to the RM250.

[oldfart]

Pe/Rm 250 T  have same centre gasket, which indicates it should fit, as the 400 use the same frame       Front engine frame plates are different.
