Well, it's the specific teeth number you want that might be a problem for people to reply to...

I saw your post about 1/2 hour after you posted it, but, I didn't know about the specific number of teeth, so I didn't reply.

As for sprockets in general, bikebandit.com, denniskirk.com, jcwhitney.com, sprocketspecialties.com (or ...specialists.com??), ebay, or if all else fails, Google "Yamaha RD400 sprockets"

But, of course, that avatar covers over a multitude of sins....   ;D

Sprocketspecialists:
>catalog search
  >Yamaha
    >RD400
      >aluminum teeth range: 32 ~ 71
      >steel teeth range:  yer outta luck...

Looks like Bikebandit only carries stock rear sizes:  37 or 38, depending on year.

Looks like DennisKirk only carries fronts.  No rears at all.

JCWhitney has exactly what you need:  http://www.jcwhitney.com/VORTEX-SPROCKETS/GP_2017175_N_111+1978+200004556+600014209_10111.jcw


Good luck with it.

Like previously stated Sproket Specialties will make just about any sprocket you desire. As an RD owner you certainly need to be aware of ............

 I found a place where they can make almost any sprocket you want!

 I ordered a 48 teeth aluminum sprocket from them.
