    On the RD400.s one reed was thicker than the other i cannot remember which one was top which was bottom now, but keep your eye on those reeds if they break they cause a right mess in the engine, people fit them thinking they are safe from damage if they break, wrong !!!, they make a right mess rebore guaranteed from what i am told ,

  24. Have you checked the adjustment is right, 10/15 mm play at the lever.does it have a adjuster at the bottom end?? check cable route has it got any sharp bends and make sure you have the correct cable , i got a speedo cable for my Z650 recently in spite of being marked Z650 on the bag there was no way it will fit Merv
