    Yamabitsa

    Started on another mission, I’m raiding my spare parts bins to but this together and plan is a road legal race style bike and decided I will only use Yamaha 70’s and 80’s parts to build as a challenge.

    So far from the parts bins we have C model RD400 frame, tank, oil tank and side cover and airbox, RD400 E wheels, LC disks, FZ calipers, early model RZ swinger, late model RZ front end, 350LC engine or 250YPVS undecided yet, RZ rad, gutted RZ chambers. Will costum make a single seat tail.
    Not sure if twin or mono shock of which there is room to fit under airbox.
    Still in mock up stage obviously.
    So from pics Naked or fairing what you think? Or just tell me it’s a POS crap idea and stop waisting good parts or my time

    I like the idea but maybe better front brakes such R6 or FZR with a bigger disc off a fzr.
    Fitting a FZR front end would be easy. the bearingas are alll pretty much the same.

    Unholy abomination. The best type. Kinda like it with the fairing. Seat needs some more thought. What will that be like in the rain?
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    More worried about the resulting fire if I try to weld it
