Hi
Building an Rd400e hybrid, and started with the engine first. Just finished it off yesterday with the fitment of a rebuilt oil pump. The engine was bought as a non runner off ebay, and needed a total rebuild. New crank, rebore, Yamaha bearings, seals and gaskets, billet clutch basket, Ebc clutch pack, Cearkoted barrels and heads with stainless head bolts, billet inlets, new Pwk28 carbs, vapour blasted crankcase and powdercoated side cases with Siberdyne clutch and generator windows. Before;
