I bought my first rd350 in March 2019. Didn't like the way it was, so I'm doing it all again.

The bike will be completely stock except, stock replacement air filters and powerdynamo ignition.

Next is to wash and degrease the 500 & 350roller.

Will stop at home Depot on the way home to get plastic and rubber plugs to block off 500's inlet and exhaust.

Bead blasted the cases last weekend. Took the forks apart yesterday to rebuild and put new seals.
Inner tubes that came with the bike has rust and pitting. I'm yet to open the inner tubes I bought from @halmic.

Will share pics as I go

I took the fork apart. Lowers not looking good. So thinking of blasting, wire wheel and clear coating it this weekend.
