Title: RD400 Ottoco Heads
Post by: boars on March 21, 2019, 08:24:54 AM
Looking for any expressions of interest in these - or even just someone to give me what a price indication I could expect to get for them. Could always try my luck on eBay I guess.

I've had them since about 2012/2013 (new) - they've sat on a shelf - my RD project got shelved when a purchase on here ended up with me around $1000 down and no engine.
After months of back and forward with the seller I gave up on ever receiving the RD400 engine - sold most of my gear and did something different (went electric) for a while to get the bad taste out of my mouth.

Anyway looking to sell the heads again, as it was the one item from my pile of RD350/400 parts that wouldn't sell for some reason.

I cannot believe these sorts of things are now going for over $800USD? (http://www.fastfromthepast.com/h-rhsc400)
Weren't they like $500 new or is my memory a bit of a failure?
Alternatively is there something different about the new ones on FFTP and HVC?

Any reasonable offer considered, otherwise I may just get them out of their boxes and use them as sexy book ends.

maybe this should be in the 'for sale ' section as well.  :twocents:

good luck with it.

Lordy, sorry I posted in the wrong board - but now that I think about it, even if I put this on the right board, I'd have broken the rules of the for sale section as I didn't put a price nor a location.

They're sitting in a box in Brisbane Australia, happy to post but truly not sure what these are actually worth.

Be nice if they went on a builder from here though.

no worries. I knew you were in Australia, its right on your profile :toot:

my opinion, list em for what you think they are worth. my opinion? 550+ shipping is fair.  shipping will be a killer if its anybody in the us or elsewhere.
