Love it!

Love the video couldn’t stand to listen to that horrible music though😊 I love that bike😊

fresh….

That sound and beauty❤

Have you ported the cylinder ?

Beautiful parts makes you never want to leave the garage

Awesome!! I love it! Sounds amazing!

Please could you let us know from which bike n model are the yokes from ?

I take it you gapped the piston rings and chamfered the upper and lower edges of all the ports in the barrel after having them bored ?

Hey Chris i got the bikes home took it for a spin and she runs great every thing sounds like new you have done an excellent job. even the rd400 is running great. Thank you great work

Very nice bike built with very nice parts I just take longer to rev the engine past 6000 rpm only after 500 km and I put 1% mix on the tank for the 1st 800 km. I also avoid constant engine speed. Anyway nice work

I had the same bike back in the day mine was very special iv never stopped liking RD I all most bought a 500 nice bikes.

Those bores look suspect!. LC bores always wear unevenly and Never clean up at 0.25mm increase, if bored properly.

Had 4 back in the day,all in different guises,love to have another,i wish this was smellyvision!

Where did you get the seat cowl?

The owner will be happy with that, I'm sure. Good parts, top workmanship, nice re-set back to zero K's on the motor. Nice work.

Beautiful piece of motorcycle history 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇬🇧

That 350LC is really beautiful. Wished I had bought one when they first came out. - that example is stunning

great job lad sounds pretty sweet maybe a bit rich on bottom end keep up the great work

Two strokes are so fun to ride. When they hit their power band and zip right on up the tachometer range it gives ya a smile.

The nicest RD I've ever seen, even though it's very modified, it's still an RD in it's heart, just more muscle and road prowess.

Y'all gotta clean the excess burn 🔥 carbon buildup off them heads like ye olde X6?

Kenny Roberts colour scheme, always loved that on an LC.

Love it! 😊

Hey mate do you have a link for the expansion chamber ? Does it work Well with the stock porting ?

I always just shim the springs with a few washers to increase spring rate. They’re all weak after 40-50 years.

Thanks for the vid. Well done. Now I have to tear in to my blown 690. Mind if I ask, what is that engine stand on the bench you used ?

Thanks for the interesting video. Whereabouts are you based?

My RD 400 Had Twin Discs On The Front.

Painful

great job as always lad nice bike that one keep up the great work next video please

@rechargegarage8705 The bike looks Great! I have a similar bike, Is the red paint job and graphics standard for 1979 models?

Good job on the pump rebuild. A very doable project for most RD owners. A couple of suggestions: 1. Be careful with the small pins that engage the gear ring. They can pop out, get lost, and ruin your day. 2. Don't lose the thrust washer on the pump drive shaft when you remove the pump from the engine. 3. Add a few drops of two cycle oil to help the seals slip into the pump body. 4. Watch your seal orientation carefully during disassembly. Take a picture or two as you go, so you can check your work. 5. It is a good idea to check the oil outlet springs and balls while you have the pump apart. Cheap to replace, if needed. Parts still available from Yamaha. Great idea for using clear tubing on the oil lines. The Yamaha autolube pumps work reliably well if maintained, providing the correct amount of oil based on engine speed and throttle position, rather than pre mix, which is either too rich at idle, or too lean at high rpm. Use a good quality two stroke oil and your pump will run reliably for many years.

Is it not safer to premix the fuel and bypass the oilpump because the next time the oilpump give up your engine could be damaged

I love the color 😊

Should have twin front discs

That's NOT aluminium ... It's METAL !!! THINK ABOUT THAT COMMENT !

I’ve had a couple of these bikes, and became very familiar With them. I used to be able to strip my 250LC down to the crankshaft in half an hour. Having the crank vases split horizontally was a good idea. It’s a shame the bike didn’t come with the standard pipes, although our experience, the Kenny Roberts replicas came with e from new (ugh - horrible things!). I had a tuner race-tune my 250. It flew but got through petrol faster than 20mpg😬. You

Very nice bike all the best from England

Good video, I like the way you demonstrated your diagnostic skills. I have owned and rebuilt the older air cooled RD's, and I own a YPVS which I have rebuilt. (We never got the LC in the US.) Two things jumped out at me from your video. 1. Why was the right cylinder head dry? 2. What caused the big end bearing to fail? This could be an oil problem, an air leak problem, or a coolant leak problem. Be sure to look for clues as you dismantle the engine. Trust your observations, I think you will get it sorted out.😊 Be sure to leak down test the reassembled engine for air leaks, particularly, the carb boots and intakes. A little extra work, but well worth it. Looking forward to seeing the next video.

That Blue Honda in the background brought some nice memories, had one of those when I was 15, so in the later half of the 70's Cool thing with the "window" for the clutch, don't know if it will be of any use, but yeah, your build, your decision 😊😊

It’s rooted I’ll get rid of it for him

No chain guard. Seat foam really needs to be flush with the tail sides to look right. Would have been good to see how you aligned the swingarm after chopping it in half.

Bores not seen conrod little end not seen. Hoping for a bit more detailed probable cause analysis in next vid.

Lots of them seized ..... over size new bore , new pistons rings, rods, crank rebuild ...off she goes 😂😂😂

Sweet bike love a 350lc

When your getting paid by the minute lol

Cranks used to go on the air cooled rd 250's before the lc. Went on my bike 250 E. After I sold it. 1980

Pissed 'n' Broke. A fried of mine was just putting a new crank in a KH250 when I said to him "you know you've got bubbles in the autolube pipe, looks to me as you have an oil pump failure.

great job lad the joj ov 2 bangers could have been worse next video please
