73' CR400 Restoration...

halffast - Thats really interesting .... I remember when I was working on the brake pedal thinking it was a bit out of shape and I spent a while fighting with it until I thought it was straight ... I did bend that tab in a bit and I did observe wear on both the pedal and frame!

I will come up with a way to lower the pedal by making an end stop of some sort .... Thank you.

Also - you say you fitted alloy tripples .... Are they really worth the $$$ ?? - I have been very tempted by them. (its so easy to go on spending money so that was a line in the sand of sorts)

Halffast,

You were 100% right .... brake pedal is now down further and feels way better.... simple mod as seen below! - Thank you

Not to hijack, but I'm wondering this, too. I'm gathering parts, the bike will end up '73 or '74, and can be 400 or 450cc. Any motor comparisons out there?

Hey Retro,
I'd like to copy your chain tensioner if you don't mind. Do you happen to have the RM125 year or part number for that spring?

Nice job!
