May 3, 201016 yr Anyone ever tried the 1974 KX-400 clutch case mod? How difficult was it? I have bolted it on, seems to fit OK, but the KX400 case I have has a seized arm mechanism. Because of this I have been unable to check if it will work. It's on the back burner for a while, so if you get any good info I would be keen to know too. Cheers, Ben

May 30, 201016 yr Author I may take you up on that Glenn. Let me know if you ever want to sell your 50. Ben I have to replace my clutch anyway so I may give it a try then. Your bike has been an inspiration. So far I have put 360mm Falcon's, Pro-Taper bars, new tires, I have TY forks I'm putting on along with the front wheel, new fenders, grips, Domino throttle, brake shoes, fork seals and wipers etc. I still hope to do the B&j porting & head mods, new chain & sprockets, seat cover, I have a friend who is going to powder coat my frame white and paint my tank even though it isn't too bad off. I also have a spare frame I plan on lowering the peg height and setback on with modern pegs as well as consider changing the head angle. I'll see what the Ty forks do for handling first. It looks like they will bring the axle about 2" closer to the frame. I'll bore the cylinder if needed while getting the porting done. The list goes on..... And to think I had originally planned to just get it good enough to ride without being scary!!! The only problem is, now that I'm used to the KT I can barely ride my modern bike!!!!
