It's a 3-fer! You could create your own winter hooligan gang to terrorize your 'hood.

Russ,
I think I have what you're looking for. Check your PMs. I can email it to you.

What is going on with the gas fill area on that tank?
Is the tank that ate up, up top?

I too was wondering what the heck is going on there. I went scrolling through the pics and got to the one of the tank mouth and went

It sounds like Dorna's sale of MotoGP (and WSBK) is going to go through, with Liberty Media forking over and estimated €4.4B.
Not sure that's such a great thing to be merged under the same owner with F1.

id keep the old board and replace the resistor for a backup.

good idea.   likely a very cheap part from Digi-Key. I recently saved a small air compressor with $4 of parts from them (cap & a bridge rectifier)

Nice! good to know they have excellent support and stand behind their products. I bought a Vevor 9? years ago (maybe longer) and it's still chugging along. I can't live without it now.

(not mine) This would be so cool to cruise around town and down PCH! It's not too far from me.
Almost looks like something you would need a red & white striped tophat and white gloves to drive

BMW joining the grid in 2027?

My condolences Dennis It's always difficult losing a pet best friend.

Boy, that's rough.
I'm going to pass. Everyone knows the red ones are faster!

also remember.. the large axle nut is on the opposite side from 350 to 400. so it -may- have a 350 swing arm in it as well.

The swing arm, where ever it came from was lengthened 3" so I didnt want that. I found a nice one on Ebay.  . 

If you purchased a replacement swingarm did you get one for a 400 or a 350? As Mark pointed out, the axle slots are different between the two to accommodate the different wheel collar diameters. If you have a RD350 wheel, which it seems you do, you'll need an arm designed for the 350. (or you'll need to fab up some custom collars to make it work with a 400 arm).
RD350: wider L axle slot
RD400: wider R axle slot (and the arm is about 1" longer than the 350)

Post up some photos of what your working with.

Both my 2 1976 RD400s have a serial number 1A1-00****   

Sorry, you're correct. First digit after the dash is a 0 on '76 model 400s. It's a 1 on first year 250s & 350s.
I'll correct my previous post

Ducati is locking up riders for next season already. They previously announced that Bagnaia had signed a contract for 2025 & 2026. Well now they've signed Aldeguer to a 2-year deal starting next season.
