It's on an RD400 at a shop near me, a customer's bike.

The shop owner is coming to the Gap...

So far so good, but who's shop was it at???
Just the fact that it's an RD should be a clue...
We took jcsnook's TZR250 to him for a cylinder swap and tuning, no, more than just regular tuning...
It's actually too easy...

He'll be heading up to the Gap on Tuesday and bringing the yellow RD again. :clap:

Ha! Guessing it was Chuck's shop is good, but I can beat that. I know the bike just by the tag. That's my friend Jim's RD. He and I ride together when we can. I think we are the only 2 strokes in Alachua county.

Ya, can't wait for that. :D Cylinders ported to SP model spec with o-ring groove modifications, SUGO 3XV-80 race CDI ignition, SP Tadao "Jackal" pipes with Tyga silencers, assembled and Supertuned by Chuck! That should unleash my R/RS model mongrel's full potential and get around all of Japan's 40-45 HP restrictions. I'm thinking (hoping) it should be somewhere in the neighborhood 60HP on the dyno. :e12 I've got some new Battleax Hypersport S20's to put on too!

Hopefully I can now keep up with you now Bill! I won't try to keep up with Chuck tho! ;)
