Rebuilt the RD from bits in boxes. I’ve done a few bikes over the years: a 350YPVS, which I still own and was my brothers from the 1980s, a ZX7R, a AS125 Yamaha twin.
I work in the fire service and have been for 28 years so have always had a practical head on me, and enjoy getting my hands dirty, I still tinker with bikes as well as my cousin has a bike shop so fix them for him, mainly 2 strokes.
And I enjoy riding them all year ns are definitely not show ponies, I’m taking the RD500 to the TT this year as well.
