Nice job Roger, have you got some before shots then?

Hi Paul,

I have a number of other pics - You can see them at : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260523397724&ssPageName=STRK:MESOX:IT

This is the bike you helped me on last summer with some advice.

Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong when I try to post pictures in the forum topic section? I did as you instructed - Wen to photobucket and posted reduced size pictures there. Copied the IMG code line and pasted it over to the insert image window, but no picture shows in my posts. What am I doing wrong?

I will try to post some before pictures again.

Thanks,

Roger

Paul,

Yep, got it figured out. Now I can work on getting the pictures the right size.( Some were too large - sorry)

Thanks again for your input last summer. As you saw in the pictures, I have another pretty rough DT360 to restore - my third one, as well as a 71 and a 72 R5. They should keep me busy for a while.

Any thoughts on my RT1 intake issues? I am going to keep that one just for dirt riding - no lights or anything. Posted in Workshop and Dualsport forums.

Thanks for the props. It was a joy to do. I have 2 R5's and a couple of other dirt bikes that need attention now. Can't wait to get one of the r5's on the road!

Looks great! A 360's the next bike I want to get and restore, that or a 400 if I can find one.

Great job, Roger!

I'm currently working on a 73 RT3, but it won't end up looking that good!

Care to recommend any of your parts sources?

fantastic restore job! That's one nice looking bike. :thumb:

Wooo!!. Nice jobb!. I have a At2 1972 in pieces so I'd like to restor but I have not idea how to make it!. Could you suggest me some literature wich can help me know where each piece goes?

Very very nice job there Roger, looks a bit like mine except you have the genuine shocks..

Heres mine before and after.
