thx
good to know
I'm almost reaching the start of the reactivation of my poor old caferacer based on a RD 350 model 351.I put in a fork of the first RD 400 after my last heavy crash with it.The rest of it are common mods of those old times.Tomaselli clipons and lampholders,R5 tank,Raask rearsets and a selfmade one piece seat/backcover.Engine almost stock.
I parked it many years ago after a piston gave up.At those times it was difficult to get parts at all and I started parallel to work as professionell mecanic for motorcycles.
 So I did turn a lot of screws combined with the daily test flights which are a must over here for the mec who did the job on the bike.
 So my RD got sort of forgotten.
If I make it I will let you guys here have a look at the reactivation job
