I'm told that this bike has a lot of interchangeability with the r5 and rd models of that time as well (its a '72) I was hoping someone could tell me where to find a list of what is inter-changable. Also, is there a way to get clipons for this old beast or will I have to find someone to make them myself. I've got some mechanical skills. Modified an 86 Iroc with my dad a few years back and already got this bike running strong, but still leaking some oil. I don't;however, have any clue as to how to weld a thing myself.
And one last question: what sprokets, top or low end parts, ect. to get more power and speed out of this lightweight beastie ( I plan on making it a whole lot lighter too.)
This is a bike that there is no info to find on online. It was only made for a year and then was replaced by the rd250. Thanks for any help you can send my way.
hmmmmm rd 400 engine/tranny fit in there?
Sounds like 2 lawnmowers screaming in tandem.
