Suzuki RM description

 Needs restoration, but mostly there and complete...Has a new piston and rings-previous owner put them in and did not put pipe on yet, so i looked up exhaust port and it was indeed bright and shiny new piston with no scuff marks whatsoever..With that said I have not been able to start bike...hit it with some carb cleaner in airbox and it fired, but has not run for any amount of time...just a couple seconds, so I am pretty sure the spark is good, may need carb cleaned, crank seals?....has no cracks in frame or aluminum swingarm, or wheels, fork tubes are rusty between triple clamps, but I dont think so in seal travel area...pics show a like 79 or 80 tank, but it does not have that anymore as it cracked..I just bought a good used 78 rm400 tank and it is on there now...like it is supposed to be...throttle tube is broken, needs new one...like I say good candidate for restoration, located in san antonio texas   no title, dirt bikes in texas did not have titles before 1996

Nissin ABS Modulator Recall Explained in NHTSA Documents

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Earlier this month, we published news about an issue with certain Nissin anti-lock brake system modulators that have been connected to recalls in Canada and Japan from Honda, Suzuki and Kawasaki, with the possibility of it expanding to further models and manufacturers using the same component. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has now released documents from American Honda’s recall of ABS-equipped CTX700 and CTX700N that shed some more light into the issue. According to the documentation, a manufacturing error may have resulted in Nissin ABS modulators being contaminated with aluminum chips.
