Finally finished 1989 F2 RZ350

#1 Post by kampinguru » Tue Jan 09, 2018 1:54 pm

Finally got this bike done. Thank you to all who assisted me along the journey. Your help was invaluable.
I have done the following to it;

Rebuilt engine
New crank
New Pistons and rings
all new seals
new water pump
steel brake lines
rebuilt the white power shock
new wheel bearings
rebuilt all calipers
rebuilt both master cylinders
rebuilt front forks
new fork springs
new steering head bearings

This bike is basically stock with the exception of the pistons and the steel brake lines. everything is there including the tool kit. The paint was done back in the early 90's but is still in really good shape.

Thank you very much. The paint was done by Pro Graphix in Oakville back in 1992. They used to be located at South Service Road and 3rd line but they are not there anymore. Hi name is Terry Collins. Not sure where he is these days.

The name rings a bell. In '92, I was living in Wasaga Beach. Knew many in the industry. Grew up in Mississauga. By this time I had 2 young kids. '93 was the last year I rode my LC on the street.
