Yamaha RD400F refresh

[SoCal250]

Beautiful work!!!  

Thanks Tim
Just trying to somewhat keep pace with the goings on in your shop (but I seem to be drastically slipping behind)

I am still working at it...one day that shop will be cleaned out and organized. It has come a long way but has a long way to go.

Ahh I see that makes perfect sense. Duh, I have my stock RD so I should know that about the caliper location.

And just an FYI in case you're getting any wild ideas if you switch fork legs to move the caliper to the rear you'll end up with the speedo drive on the wrong side and spinning backwards, bringing all the issues that entails.

OK good to know I would love to do that someday but for now my RD doesn't scare me enough to be wanting more stopping power.

Realized I never posted the before/after shots of the right side of the engine since I was still working on that when I posted the left photos back in May.

BEFORE:


AFTER:


And how the bike looks now following all the recent updates during the refresh.

Very cool! Has anyone tried the clear clutch window mod on the RD350?
