I think all the older brands used all metal gears and not much problems even when neglected. Might have to check into using a drive unit off a DR, XR-L, or klr since they run that side also. Differences in drive methods probably will require the wheel hub to match, but once sorted, no more bad speedo drive. I used an XR-L on one of my XT's to move the drive unit over and used a Honda front wheel. Works the same as the Yami one. The Honda Unit kept my oem Yamaha speedometer accurate enough as the original. Needs to be off a 21" tire bike for best chance of staying ok , maybe the DR or Klr won't be as close, don't know.
