I'll give it a shot. Thanks.

Trying to dismantle my forks to poish the bottom and replace the tubes. I can't get the tubes out. I have the oil drained, and the springs out. The hex bolt on the bottom just keep turning and turning and I don't see a circlip on the top to take off... Any suggestions?

I have no clue about the brakes- I have to do a little more research to figure it out. My buddy who raced it rebuilt the bike a few times but he wasn't the main man behind what went where... I do have braided lines already I scavenged from another of my buddys bikes. I don't have any pics up...

So far I have never even ridden an RD. My buddy raced this one way back and he said the single disc didn't give it much stopping power at all. I do have the dual disc set up. The calipers i'm sure will need to be rebuilt but I have everything I need there... I still have to figure out what it is...

It's just in terrible shape. It definately needs new tubes and I think I only have one of the calipers- rust- kinda tyring to be lazy here. And I am not even 100 percent sure what it is from... I am replacing the steering bearings because they are not quite smooth anymore- kinda feels bumpy when...

Hey guys. I am rebuilding a 1975 RD350- I think it currently has a suzuki waterbuffalo fron end on it (or so I am told...) Anyway- it's pretty beat. Anyone have and suggestions for a different dual disc front end?

I think I actually e-mailed you about it. You asked me what I was looking for and I e-mailed ya back...

I picked a 75 RD 350 from a buddy of mine who used to race it- pretty much gave it to me. Frame and motor look showroom- problem is that's about all I got. I am looking for a tank for it- I like the RD400 tanks (not the daytona specials) but i want something stretched... I really want to have to...

Appreciate the help. I am also looking into the removable section to fit in there. I am going to go to a shop today and talk with them and see what their take is on the subject and how much this is going to set me back. Can't wait to get into the motor and see that that the cam chain is actually...

How do reccommend it be fixed? I assume have it welded so it is back to the original? The only problem I see with that is that I personally think that the welds will be the weak link... Man I wish I checked it out better before I bought it. Thanks.

I finally got my hands on an old 73 cb750. Got it pretty cheap so I jumped at it. I started to tear it down today and thought something looked funny. I took of the tank and noticed the two spars underneath the main tube(underneath the tank) were chopped back to the beginning of the seat mount...
