http://rdracer.blogspot.com/2011/04/shake-down-rides.html
Turning a 1970's era Yamaha RD400 into a street-fighter / cafe racer hybrid. Follow the completion of my Yamaha RD400 rebuild, "Project RD400 Racer". Monday, April 11, 2011. So I thought I would finish the "Project RD400 Racer" in one summer, what a joke. I'll never finish, I'll just keep tinkering! Next I'll play will the main-jets on the carbs. The first couple of shade-down rides have gone well, without any major issues or failures. The bike is a blast to ride and the powerband is exhilarating! I'm ju...

Project RD400 Racer: December 2012
http://rdracer.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Turning a 1970's era Yamaha RD400 into a street-fighter / cafe racer hybrid. Follow the completion of my Yamaha RD400 rebuild, "Project RD400 Racer". Sunday, December 16, 2012. Need to chill on the RD, or else I'm going to get hurt again. Jet Test 2 - "Baseline". Way too rich - loading up until 6,000 - 6,500 rpm. Cyclic thumping in chambers at idle. Never really comes onto the pipe. Knew this would be too rich, but I thought it would be at least a tad closer! Slow / Pilot - 48. Clip Position - #3 (middle).

All of the rebuild parts have arrived and the rebuild is well underway. My ribs and side still hurt and a sneeze will induce a level of pain that I can't even begin to describe. I also have ...

http://rdracer.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Turning a 1970's era Yamaha RD400 into a street-fighter / cafe racer hybrid. Follow the completion of my Yamaha RD400 rebuild, "Project RD400 Racer". Monday, November 16, 2009. Finishing up the last of the wiring and now everything works. Routing fuel lines, still need to get some small clamps. Tonight I'll reverse - bleed the front brake, grease the swingarm. Pivot, fill the gearbox and forks with oil, . And then off the stand she comes and she will begin resting on two wheels. Monday, November 9, 2009.
