I bought one of these in 1991 for $160. All it needed was a new exhaust. What a rocket of a bike. Unbelievable power. I ended up trading it even up for a truck. Nice to see one again

What's with the odd cc's back then??? Lol We had 465, 490cc's.

@TheKnoxcountry Ай бұрын

Awesome! Something about those early 80cc bikes. I know most have the same graphics of their bigger brothers but, they just look more fun somehow.. Nice build guys👌

Une rd bien réglée ne fume pas comme ça, même à froid, et de plus, une restauration soignée est incompatible, dans l’esprit avec des bruits d’échappement inciviques, et pas qu’un peu !

Had this bike '76 exactly like this one except I had after market jugs on the top with larger angled fin area's for better heat dissipation. Noting like that 2 stoke sound and that long stream of blue smoke behind it. Just loved it.

@jeffdavison8421 8 ай бұрын

Timing the power valve rack with the vertical shafts that open and close the valves is critical. If your a tooth off you will never get the governor to engage. I struggled with the HPP system greatly before I figured them out. Great bike btw.

@daneaton7028 8 ай бұрын

Wow, that’s one of the best restorations I’ve seen!! Great job!! what’s the process on making the tank so shiny and what color did you use for the motor?

@grmotorcycle 8 ай бұрын

For the tank, a little sandblasting and s-100. The engine is a high-temperature satin black paint and finished with a high temperature clear. Thanks for the feedback.

Im curious did you paint the tank yourself? If so did you clear coat over the decals or put them on after? Your bike is gorgeous, nice thorough job!

@grmotorcycle 10 ай бұрын

Painted by a friend and put the original decals after. Thanks !

@julesvern-u4e 10 ай бұрын

I'm about to do this to my 77 RD400.. gonna do all the painting myself. My plan for the frame is glass bead blast it to bare metal, etching primer, few coats of black Dupli-color then a few coats of 2K clear to protect it all. Same thing will happen to the tank and panels. Fingers cross it all comes out looking good and is durable.

@anonimous2451 4 ай бұрын

Powder coating it would last longer and be far superior. Spray cans suck, even if you do a great job, it is still sub-par.

@markhoskins579 10 ай бұрын

My first bike was a 1974 RD350, bought new for about $1000-1200, and afterwards I bought a 1976 RD400, which was more refined that the 350 -- smoother and with no plug fouling. I would love to find either model again to restore/rebuild. They were great bikes and loads of fun. Your restored '77 is beautiful and makes me envious (where did you get the pipes?)

@grmotorcycle 10 ай бұрын

Yes they are a lot of fun! I have another 1977 RD400 project for sale with a second basket case bike if you are interested. Pipes are DG. I'm a dealer if you ever need some.

@markhoskins579 10 ай бұрын

Thanks. The offer is tempting, but I'm quite a bit south of you, in Lexington, Kentucky. The model I would really like to find is an RZ350, but they are rare.

@steves2241 11 күн бұрын

The drum brakes are fine, I rode my 1982 RM465 for 8 years and never crashed one time because the brakes did not stop me. Are they as good as disc brakes, of course not, but they work just fine.

Nice hard kickstarting there dude. Can you not start it with your left foot on the ground too. Needs some seriously hard kicking like this guy here kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJvPlHalebB0htEsi=YqB1DZo9Xxb44W1J to get a 490 started. That's how I start mine and it's a real beast to get started. Sometimes 15 or 20 kicks when it's cold. I always hold the clutch in too when I kick a dirtbike over incase its still in gear. A good habit to get into which many guys have. Feels awesome starting a yz490 or cr500 .

@mt.rushmore7916 11 ай бұрын

That's right. I had one of these with a new piston and bore and rode it all over western Wyoming in the high deserts......where the wild mustangs roamed. Mine was jetted extremely perfectly and it clearly had much more nuts than this one. Literally, every time the cylinder fired.......the whoose of spent gas out the back would move the grass below it. The engine was a friggin' dangerous blast......you could feel every time the plug fired. The Pro Link was absolute crap and would very unexpectedly spit your ass off the bike and drive you into the hard soil until only the sole of your shoe was visible to someone walking by. I distinctly remember this happening one time in the hills just west of Rock Springs. I hit the ground so hard I could not breath....I thought I was going to die in the middle of that narrow rocky miserable trail. Finally, I was able to get my lungs to work again....but, it was a scary event. It actually rivaled (in terror) the three times I have hit deer on bikes in the intervening years. I often wish I had lived like the worthless soy fukkers-young people do now days so I would not be in so much pain at my current age. A lot of these injuries are for LIFE.

If he dropped the needle down one ut would revv out cleaner for sure . But she is definitely a beaut he built
