Dude I'm good friends with John at ec. I'm local have an Rv and would give a nut to do this.

i know i dont know anybody, but im gonna be in the area for myrtle beach bike week to see family.. and it looks like i may be close to having my rd finished.

sorry for the sizing.. i never had an rd, but been on the gap alot if its cool with yall

thank you.

I have a Benelli tank with the weird 10mm petcock size, one for each carb.. i am running vm28s on an rd400 with just chambers and the castings cleaned up (nothing crazy). all the petcock i find to fit chocke down to what i measure as a 1/4 inch.. if i feed each carb separately would that provide enough fuel without worrying about starvation?
appreciate any thought or solutions.

i use to live in pawleys island. i have ran the tail a few times.. i just find it hard to cut loose when there is an event going on.. to many people and last October i did 5k miles on my cbr. (from 3 sisters here in texas to west virginia.  i rode the gap for 6 hours back and forth what a great day... but man i wish i was on something smaller.. that 1k is alot to throw around. ill try the resizing from the phone tonight when i get home..

 a few years ago i bought a few rd's and tz's. my 400 is the banner right now, and my wife has a standard bore Portuguese orange 350 i bought in boxes that had a little over 1100 miles on the clock. right now our goal is to have them both ready for the myrtle beach spring rally in may... its been a awhile since i been on a forum so i have to get the photos uploaded.. and ill post what i started with to where i am today..

u'll love it, i miss my duck, not as much as the agusta but it was great bike.
i maybe wrong, but if you plan on any aftermarket pipes etc, you have a limited source in order to reflash the ecu. i learned the hard way on my bmw..

Welcome from another Ft. Worth resident!  I'm in WedgHood and I'm resto-modding a '74 RD350.

We stay in the hills of white settlement. But my buddy owns a shop off 35 and golden triangle.   The front half is where they specialize in Toyota trucks but the back half where I get to play we do nothing but 750 plus hp stuff. Mainly LS swaps but we just started a twin turbo  feeding a supercharged hellcat motor swap  that is going into a Chrysler 300. Customer has stupid money... He owns PRs in the stockyards.
Anyway you know any good twistys in the area?  I'm originally from east Texas and just haven't found any great routes yet..

couldnt resize

Let's see pics!

ill be honest, i havent been on a forum in 10+ years. and in that time i tried to forget everything about technology i never wanted to know lol. but ill see if i can get one of my kids to help me out.

and thanks everyone for the welcome.

ill give it a shot and it worked but i dont know how to resize sorry.

hey all, economy cycle recommended this forum to me. i purchased a few 2 strokes and NOS parts about 10 years ago and now im semi retired, so its time to go thru some of them. first on the build is my wifes rd350 followed very closely by my rd400. i had the engines built a few years back but due to life i have to go thru them again. thanks for the forum and the vast info i have found so far..
i am quite sure now after reading alot of older threads i have no idea what im doing lol.
