I suppose you could ask him if he would throw in the rest of the bike if you purchase them.   :pop:

Those are rare but that price HAS to be a typo. His other parts (Ducati & Aprilia) all seem fairly reasonable.
Although, maybe it's not a typo since he claims an NOS set sold for $3800.  ::)

Are these in any way functionally superior? I would think if they were someone would have re-popped them already. So their only use is the last tiny detail on a concourse type restoration...  I will assume that the standard RD400 reproductions fit fine on a Daytona.

I've seen plenty of crazy stuff with restorers going overboard to make things correct. Even details that are not visible. But this is a little over the top.

I know a guy who makes rubber reproductions in Texas... How many Daytonas are left in the world? Probably not enough to warrant making some at a fair price.

they could be modeled and cast for about what hes asking for with a 3-d mold.  clauss (sp?)  studios does stuff like this.

hes just being a greedy fuck hoping to catch lightning in a bottle.

I have a set...any offers?
I'm a realist. How about $134?
I'm very blessed to not have that much gray hair at 60!

My '79 is missing them but I'm not dropping more than $10-15 on a set. It's been fine for almost 15 years without them so...

Besides they add unnecessary weight and reduce cooling
