Finished the back end

Trying to put the bottom end together with 400 transmission

Parade lap https://youtu.be/10TkLcrsBh0

Lyn I have sent you an email. Please let me know if I can buy a couple of RD350 gaskets when I meet you at Barber.

I have Thursday and Friday off, and want to take my RZV, but the Barber web site doesn't give much info on how to get into any of the vintage shows or participant events....like ride on the track for a lap or two.

you can sign up for parade laps if you want to take the RZV on the track

I am flying in on thursday and heading back on sunday

Will be camping! you will see me with my Gamma B/W and RZ350

Really nice work, crank is great runout!
Kinda surprised you didn't send the transmission to Florida at R&D Motorsports to have it backcut.
Maybe you have never had one and experienced a back cut transmission...All my bikes whether race or street will have one...they're that good.

no chuck i have not ridden a back cut transmission on RZ350. Never had a stock transmission miss a gear or fail.
The transmission on the bike is getting antifriction coating, but thats about it. Will upload the latest pics.

I took the fork apart. Lowers not looking good. So thinking of blasting, wire wheel and clear coating it this weekend.

Ed sent this pic yesterday. I should have it by mid next week.

This is getting built by Ed Toomey

Will get the roller ready this weekend while I'm waiting on crank from Ed

Installed new tapered steering bearings last night.

Bead blasted the cases last weekend. Took the forks apart yesterday to rebuild and put new seals.
Inner tubes that came with the bike has rust and pitting. I'm yet to open the inner tubes I bought from @halmic.

Will share pics as I go

thanks rob. plan a trip to scottsdale we can go riding

Next is to wash and degrease the 500 & 350roller.

Will stop at home Depot on the way home to get plastic and rubber plugs to block off 500's inlet and exhaust.
