i have a problem. i can't leave it alone. i will sit there with a small paint brush and just touch up everything i can. oh and i don't want any rusted bolts. hard work is cheap but you have to want it bad enough.

this is a project i did a few years ago. it was a labor of love for the 2 stroke twin that started 40 some years ago as a 16 year old with a brother that left for collage. he left me with his rd350b that had bassani's and filter pods. so for the yr1 i modified a set of dg pipes, added filters, and jetted it. what a bike it was.

these were my bikes till 2014 when i had a accident on my rd350. i spent 2 months in hospital. i fully recovered but unfortunately the doctors said no more riding so i sold them.
you can't go to long without riding so i now have three bikes and the 75 rd350 is one of them.

it's not my 1975 rd350. this is my 2000 suzuki bandit 1200. it is light weight and easier to handle than a crotch rocket.
i rode it yesterday before dinner.

ok thanks for the specs.
i bought a rd350b and it has a rd400 side cover on it. i wanted to replace the push rod but didn't know if it was a rd350 or 400 rod. so it is a rd400 push rod at 230mm.
that helped me alot.

don't get me wrong. the covers fit and clutch work great. i was just wondering if this was some sort of update to make your clutch work better??
thanks for the replies.

i had to make a shield to cover an opening left by the 400 case to cover the counter shaft sprocket.
