A couple of my bikes

[RLB454]

So here are a couple pics of my bikes, I am mostly in to vintage 2 strokers.

74' Yamaha RD350:


79' Yamaha RD400 "Dayton Special", my current down to bare metal, nut and bolt resto. It is sooooo close to being done! This bike is gonna RIPPPPP!:


And of course the 02' Capo:


Also in my stable are a 78' RD400, not sure what direction this one will take. A 75' Kawi H1 that I have a complete 89' FZR rear end to put on (yes a mono shock, he he), and plan to fit a R1 front end on. Ha ha, maybe then it will not only be fast, but it will actually stop and handle pretty good!

COOL! I had a 400 way back, and rode my friends RD 350's before that when all I could afford was my Ossa....

I'm familiar with you from over on 2strokeworld RLB.

I have a RD & KH too. Fun bikes.

Do enjoy Aprilia land. Soon you will be ready to step up to a RSVR or Tuono.

Hey Max, when I saw the notification of a reply that said from "maxacceleration", I wondered if that might be you. Funny how you run across the same guys on the different forums.

As far as stepping up to an RSVR, believe me, I have my eye on the new RSV4
ha ha, an untamable beast....I need one! Probably not in my near future tho

In the mean time, do enjoy your Capo!

RLB there's no crying over here.Show any weakness and the locals will descend like vampires on a blood bank.


Enjoy the Capo.

I grew up (as a rider) on Yammy smokers.

My first bike - '69 R3

Second '76 RD400 that I raced at Bridgehampton, NY. That bike was fast enough to beat half the field, one class higher (550 fours), on my first time out on the track.

Love that Daytona!

I raced an orange one, that stupid me HAD to paint yellow, stupid, stupid, stupid...

Circa 1984



I was glad when I got my RZ the next season.
