I am trying to determine who manufactured this pipe from the 70's.

The bike is my 75 tm400 with updated frontand rear suspension.. little more comfortable to ride and runs like a charm!

Thanks for the space Nathan,

Paul

thats a nice TM400 there! the 75 models are very rare as the 71-74 models had a very bad reputation that was caused by both evil power delivery and truly wretched handling.this of course hurt the bikes reputation and by the time the 75 model came out which had most of its problems fixed very few bought one.plus the stunning RM370's came out in 76 or 77.truly a neat bike you have there.
