Wanted: Suzuki TM/TS400 rod kit.
« on: July 22, 2013, 09:55:06 pm »
I'm going to fit a full circle TS crank to my TM400 for the Nats and will get Frank to balance it before I fit it. I'll need to fit a new big end and probably a new rod while its apart. Has anyone got one they'd sell me or can someone point me in the right direction to get one. Thank you in advance gentlemen ;).

Firko,one thing I do klnw is dont buy one off Paul Miller on Ebay.

I tried to buy one for a mate last year and he unsuccessfully sent me three which were all rusty and then shafted me the last time and wouldn't refund my money.

Be careful with this a##hole.

try www.mrcrankshaft.com he was very helpful with my rm465 crank. doesnt have one listed but could probably source a rod kit or even a crank ready to fit.
cheers

Sigh.. and YES I too am getting screwed around by Linda of Paul Miller Motorcycle.
Sent me the wrong item. Sent it back.
Sent me a different wrong item. Sent it back.
No refund, no replies...
These people are not looking terribly trustworthy.

I may not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.
