Has anyone tried adapting a electrical oil level sensor to the RD350B 2T oil tank and speedo dash? I know most will say that the oil level window and dip stick suffices, but just wondering if anyone has done this mod. I think its a cool mod....Seems like the RD250 came with this upgrade as an OEM fitment..

m in sc

the 400s and rzs had a float. however you can use a clear tube and tee it up between the feed ad vent, have seen that done

You could use a sensor or like mark said a switch that completes a circut to turn the light on.
Do not underestimate the power of a two-stroke.

Yeah, I like the idea of the RZ. Will have to figure out the length of the sensor...

Thanks Guys.
