Late 70's to Late 80's - Worth shopping for?

[Berdink]

Because I had no idea the pin that holds the clutch dog in place was about to come out and chew up my gears in my 84 Suzuki, I'm asking sellers if everything else checks out, and I'm a serious buyer, would they be willing to let me open up the lower unit. If all is good in there, I'll buy it.

Do you guys think that's an unreasonable ask?

I would say probably. That’s a major risk and liability for them should you not take it

I doubt anyone would agree to that.

 

[Berdink]

That's why I asked.
Thanks

now if you ask if a mechanic could, they may be more inclined.
