Yamaha RD 400 description
Completely disassembled to the frame and rebuilt. There are less than 100
miles on the engine, so it is not completely broken in. Initial
break-in procedures as recommended by Vintage Specialties and LA Sleeve
were followed.
Rebuilding includes the following: Crank was rebuilt by Vintage Specialties of Jenkinsburg GA New top end with new Wiseco pistons and 65mm re-bore Rebuilt and ultrasonically cleaned carbs. Jetted to 130 mains and 30 idles Oil injection system ultrasonically cleaned. New gaskets, hoses and nozzles Uni air filters in original air box New front brake master cylinder Rebuilt rear brake cylinder Rebuilt front and rear brake calipers New brake lines New neck and wheel bearings New fork seals and fork springs New swing-arm bushings New tires,and chain Wheels have been newly powder-coated Polished engine covers heads and fork legs Has Martek solid state ignition. Timing is set to 2.3mm New coils, ignition wires, plugs and plug caps Replaced wire harness and components. All electronics work as they should. Frame and components were repainted, no tabs were cut Body parts were repainted Chappy Red Bike starts and runs great thru all six gears. I cannot emphasize enough that the engine is not fully broken in and will need to be further broken in and possibly re-jetted. It is now at P30 and M130. There is no warranty given or implied. I previously had this bike listed in a cafe racer configuration and received quite a few questions regarding whether I had original parts to convert it back, so I did it. The cafe seat is available but the DG exhaust and rear sets are being used on another project. If you have less that a 5 positive feedback score I will cancel your bid unless you contact me via Ebay. I WILL NOT SELL OUTSIDE THE US. Any questions call Bill at 201 401-6380 Bill Bergtold bergtoldw@aol.com |

Suzuka Eight Hour capers
Mon, 05 Sep 2011Chatting to TT legend John McGuiness recently about his first Suzuka Eight Hour experience got me thinking of a few capers the boys and me managed a few years back at what is still Japan's most important race of the season. It is a unique event that starts at 11am and finishes at 7pm making it a pukka endurance race as the last hour is run with headlights on in the dark. It is essentially an eight hour sprint that showcases the trickest endurance machinery and manufacturer’s sales can be affected the following year depending on who wins or loses.
Maybe the Evo class is the future for WSB?
Thu, 05 May 2011Did we see the future of World Superbike racing last weekend at the BSB event? Possibly, but only if everyone is on Evo spec machines in 2012. By setting the 2nd fastest lap in race one and running second for a while in race two, the brilliant Alex Lowes proved that with a good grid position an Evo spec machine can be competitive for part race distance at least.
