Posted May 12, 201311 yr Hello everyone, I've just got my hands on a '86 RD350N1 YPVS. I got it for a good price because the engine was seized. The engine hasn't run for years, so I was hoping the seizure was just the pistons stuck in the bores. Unfortunately not, one of the I've been riding and servicing bikes for years, but this is my first engine rebuild. I've tended to steer clear of engine internals, preferred to leave it to the pro's, but now it's time to get stuck in, I don't think I can break it anymore than it already is. Hopefully you guys will be able to give me some pointers when things get tricky? I'm documenting my progress here, so feel free to have a look and comment if I cock something up
