1980 mini-me Daytona 400

#1 Post by LC Cnd » Tue May 02, 2017 11:15 pm

An South African RD250G that was originally Daytona white. Interesting blend of a Dayton head scoop on a 250cc and braking system. Appearently sold in Australia too. 1st time I've seen one. $2750 Cnd.

That's a nice bike. Paint scheme isn't for me but I could live with it. 'Til winter. :smt003

Yes the 250cc version was sold in Australia.
I have a few of the one piece heads somewhere in my shed!
