Suzuki RM description

This is a very nice race/play ready 1979 RM400.   Piston, rod, crank, all bearings and seals have been replaced.  The bike has not been raced since rebuild.  Plastics and tank were replaced. Swingarm bearings replaced and wheel bearing confirmed good with no play.  DG National pipe and silencer added.  Mikuni carb kit added.  Piston is 1mm over and light transfer port work was done. Forks are from '83 RM500 with DLS brakes adjusted properly.  Rebuild on Works Performance triple spring rate shocks.  Progressive fork springs installed.  The bike starts easily, runs great with lots of travel on both ends. A new Bridgestone M-404 rear tire is included as a spare.  Chain and sprockets have tons of life.  I'm quitting riding at 72 which is why it's for sale.  The bike has been ridden for about 8 hrs since rebuild.   I will assist with buyers shipping company.
