MotoFiaccone RD400 Chopper/Cafe build--for real this time.

I've been here. Sorry to hear things are tight. I'm sure it won't be long till tour back in the swing of things.

sorry to see she has to go chris but that is 1/2 the fun of building them IMO, selling them to someone to enjoy... good luck on your sale bud

I realize the time, effort, and money it takes to build a custom bike... but 4k for an RD that needs a top AND bottom end?! It's very hard to expect to recoup the money spent on a bike built to YOUR tastes, bc style is so subjective. More power to you if you can pull 4,3, or even 2 k for it. I'm at the point where I have spent 4.5k on mine, and I am thinking if selling it for something modern but i know that 3500 will likely be my ceiling. And that's with 1200 miles on a fresh balanced crank, top end, and reshsped o ringed heads.

It may serve you better yo find a usuable crank replace the seals, spend the $350 for a top end and sell it running. Good luck with it
