Posted September 12, 200915 yr Started a project 2 year ago. Started with a bare RD350F2 frame. This is how it looks so far: Frame is modified, fork is a Paioli USD from a 250 GP-Racer, swingarm is a TZR125, wheels are SZR660 and brake rotors are YZF750. Seat is a "one of". Front fender is a real carbon fender. Brake calipers (not shown on the pic's) are Spiegler 4 piston types. Engine is tuned (+4mm stroker crank, ported cylinders, 2 in 1 intake with 38mm flatslide carburator, Zeeltronic ignition and Billet Powervalves from Twostroke-shop) and will be installed next month as we need to do some work on the cylinders and head. Will get it finished this winter. Tank and seat will be painted pearl white with carbon decals. Bike will be road legal. Greetings, Pico

January 29, 201015 yr Author Looks great. How much did you have to modify to get the forks and swingarm on? Had to modify the frame to take the swingarm, had to modify the swingarm itself as well. Swingarm was still to wide at the pivot point after machining the pivot point so I had to make more space between the mushrooms on the frame. Machined them down a couple of milimeters to make it fit. We needed to make a new upper mounting point for the SZR660 shock and weld it into place and had to make some spacers fot the original pivot point for the SZR660 link And had to make some custom bogbones. Frontend was quite easy. Just a 5mm thick washer was needed to make it fit Tomorrow I will install the engine. I need to because I have a deadline.... On the 17th of april I'm going to drive the Assen TT circuit twice Then it needs to be ready, run-in and the carburator adjusted to the setup I run (+4mm stroker crank, modified and ported barrels, 2 into 1 intake with 38mm flat slide TMX carburator, Zeeltronic programmable ignition and tuned pipes) I'll keep you guy's posted.....
December 11, 201014 yr Author Almost a year later the bike is still not ready The trackday was canceled and I hadn't much time to work on the bike. Next year a new chance. This is how she looks now Still need a lot of things to do..... The tank and the seat will be painted in matt black with glossy black highlights.
December 11, 201014 yr Moderator the thing with building specials is, never put a time or price on them. They always double or worse keep plugging away mate, I have re-set my tracker project twice already. I have a day in mind but not going to jinx it by telling anyone
