has to be slightly narrowed at the pivot, at the asking price I will narrow the pivot. Using the R6 shock requires a new upper mount. I will sell the arm only for $300, it will be a bolt up with two spacer washers added to the dog bone connection at the arm. I think I will have to get this to a bolt...

Re: MacDaddy RZ350 billet water pump gear

I did this to the YZ465's when I was wrenching on 500cc national bikes, works quite nice. Getting an RZ into neutral is the big issue (race bike) I have the modified shift drums that have neutral at the top (GP shift) gets rid of that issue
