I think this warrants being here and ebay insanity. == https://www.ebay.com/itm/VERY-RARE-YAMAHA-RD400F-Daytona-2v0-11162-00-00-CYLINDER-FIN-RUBBERS/193414541423?hash=item2d0867b06f:g:5iYAAOSwlcxejUPy

I suppose you could ask him if he would throw in the rest of the bike if you purchase them. :pop:
made an offer
feel free to do so as well and post here. :dawg:
Those are rare but that price HAS to be a typo. His other parts (Ducati & Aprilia) all seem fairly reasonable.
Although, maybe it's not a typo since he claims an NOS set sold for $3800. ::)
Oh really... everyone has a asshole...some bigger than some.

Sure that'll sell.
Are these in any way functionally superior? I would think if they were someone would have re-popped them already. So their only use is the last tiny detail on a concourse type restoration... I will assume that the standard RD400 reproductions fit fine on a Daytona.
I've seen plenty of crazy stuff with restorers going overboard to make things correct. Even details that are not visible. But this is a little over the top.
I know a guy who makes rubber reproductions in Texas... How many Daytonas are left in the world? Probably not enough to warrant making some at a fair price.

they could be modeled and cast for about what hes asking for with a 3-d mold. clauss (sp?) studios does stuff like this.

hes just being a greedy fuck hoping to catch lightning in a bottle.
I have a set...any offers?
I'm a realist. How about $134?
I'm very blessed to not have that much gray hair at 60!

My '79 is missing them but I'm not dropping more than $10-15 on a set. It's been fine for almost 15 years without them so...
Besides they add unnecessary weight and reduce cooling
Man, I have a set as well. I'll sell them, to support my project habits.
He has competition gaskets $1050 but you save $450. -- https://www.ebay.com/itm/Yamaha-RD400-Partial-Engine-Gasket-Assortment-Lot-New/264692572958?hash=item3da0e8231e:g:G4wAAOSws6RejdGM
Wtf?
Has to be a mistake.
I could not resist. :whistle: I sent him a message in my humblest way possible. 8) I hope he appreciates it, non PC and all.
If I get a reply,? will share.

I made an offer on those.
Marked sold now.
If E Bay has it marked as sold, isn't the commission due? Something sketchy is going on.

$1500 now, maybe he is trying to get you to meet him in the middle. You should up by 25 cents.
