Just acquired a '87 version - became available suitably cheap (even cheaper in wife pounds) and I couldn't resist it! Will have to go into 'quarantine' for a while though .. once I have sold one of my 2 strokes I'll introduce it to my wife as a 'sensible race bike for 2009 that shouldn't blow up every second meeting' . !
Anyone owned one of these? All advice welcome. Intend to split the engine and change the cam chain and check the bearings before using it in anger. No idea how it will handle and stop so that bit will be interesting. Can feel a phone call to Maxton coming on!
and .. if anyone is interested in a variety of RD350 engine parts do get in touch. Cranks, cases, barrels, carbs etc. Very quick, fully sorted, just rebuilt, Fahron tuned RD 400 might be up for grabs soon too.
