I was able to get some parts out the back door at Suzuki when they got the TR750&#8217;s and sent the 500 parts to the crusher. I&#8217;ve been racing in AHRMA with it for about 4 yrs, after a 30-some year hiatus from bikes. I have one of the factory close ratio gearsets in it. Took it to Daytona this year and won the Formula 500 race. That was particularly satisfying because the number 1 plate is held by a guy with an H1R. The Suzuki had top speed on him, it was great. However, I pulled it apart for another problem and found that I&#8217;d lost a tooth on the 2nd gear on the driven shaft. All the gears are looking a little ragged.
