Central nervous system installed right up to the self-cancel signals. Since I already have my hot rod RD400, I'm selling this one when finished. All stock, includes stock and superbike bars, fully refurbished. Then I can move on to my 1978 IT175 that I bought new and has been sitting for decades.

That looks tidy enough, good job!

Hi congrats on the progress with your bike and that's awesome to hear. I just clicked on and took a decent look at your posted link here and I have to say you sir have a great achievable goal. I believe you can do it. Your bike will every bit as good as that bike. Which by the way that bike sold for a pretty penny, over 6 grand. I dunno maybe I'm a bit stunned but I don't believe that to be such a rare bike so that seems like a great price. Not that I have a problem with it but I guess I get used to seeing so many RD's being sold on the cheap. I mean the bike didn't have a title and truly was a survivor bike as stated in the ad. The owner got her running but who's to say the crank or rings or oil pump don't give up their ghosts? I'm with you on all the pluses your's will have over that and I think your taking your bike in just the right direction.  :twocents:

Ready to roll except for a crack in sprocket side cover that I have to get welded.   ;D
