For anyone who needs a title for an RD in the state of Michigan you are in luck!  Michigan has a "Certificate of Ownership".  The requirements are:  must be 10 years old and the value must not exceed $2500.00.  You can use Kelly Blue Book for the value, either resale or trade in value, which ever is less.  For the last year the trade in value for a 1975 RD 350 is $1530.00.  You must sign that you have exhausted all resources trying to locate the title.  Really, that's it, I just did this last Thursday.  Had my title in about 5 minutes.  You pay 6% on the trade in value, $91.00.  I have spent a lifetime with headaches at the DMV, this was the easiest thing I have ever done.  Hope this helps anyone in Michigan.  You do need to bring a copy/print of the KBB trade in value.  Form is attached.

P.S.  Kudos to the state of Michigan for having some plain old common sense with some of their laws/red tape!!

I bought the Yamaha 650 left hand turn signal/headlight/horn switch from Mikes XS.  It didn't come with any kind of wiring info, no diagram, nothing saying what wire is what.  I called them, and they apologized and said they would email a diagram but it's been over a week and nothing.  Anybody have one of these and know how they are wired? Thanks for any help.

I started this project back in 2015, there was a build thread on the old board but progress had been so slow I have not posted anything in a couple of years.  I have been picking away and I am ready to post because I am actually almost finished.  I hope to take it to Mark (M in SC) early this spring for tuning and actually be able to ride it this summer!  I built the frame, swing arm, custom stem for R1 forks, front disc brake system, rear disc brake system, rear sets, tank, seat, tail section, pipes, silencers, manifolds, almost every single part of the bike.  A huge thank you to Mark Hasse, Joe Spooner and Jim Hobbs, They all were a huge help and inspiration to helping me get this done.

Sorry for the way the pictures are posted, it's the only way I know how to do it..
