RZ/RD 350 & Misc. 2-Stroke Tech BBS

Waited a week. Placed the manifolds in a sealing $1.50 tupperware container with three 100ml pure wintergreen oil ($8 each) mixed with 989ml of isopropyl($1.50) vs. aftermarket 26mm ($50-70) replacements from to Amazon.ca. The manifolds turned from stone to almost being able to pinch the carb inlet ...

Was comfortably entertained by UK/Japan pricing on RD/RZ's vs the affordable values here in North America - especially in Canada. Thought the value bubble would have burst, at least in North America, to help with current rising insurance costs - nope. Hagarty not an option (wish it was). Can buy vin...

Ordered two zeeltronic cdi's.They arrived approximately a week after Boxing day....

Well if your going to do Mad Sunday (although I hear it's become rather pedestrian sadly) you might need em lol.

Rob if you can post your tower vids pls do. Checking Adam's Ducati vid, it appears he works at a bike shop. Was last at AMP back in 2013 - fun track. Believe Gilles Villeneuve still holds the track record at AMP. Be fun to attend a Manx race however.

Checked my spare RDLC flywheel and noted the only different #s were the middle four stampings. Mine is 0 1B X. The first 9 and last 5 alpha-numerics are identical. If trying to id it for a LC build, I think it would be safe to say both are from an LC & a keeper.
