Greetings from Norway!

Post by KaoZ »

Hi there, I was searching for RD and 2stroke info when I found this nice forum :) Well, my name is Jan Ove and im from Norway, Im currently building a Cafe racer! Its a 1971 YDS7 250, with RD350 cylinders.

It was in VERY bad shape when I bought it:

Some dunstall parts on there!

And this is how it look now! :

The tank and seat are just mounted so that you can see how it will be in the end. Im also installing a newtronic ignition on it!

Thats all!

I was about to say "Beautiful and Unusual Bike" until I saw that totally gorgeous cat. What a big fluffy thing! What's his / her name?

Hello Jan,welcome:). Nice shape your bike is taking on. All the best with it and post new pictures and the sound clip when you are done :).

Just one suggestion mate,if you havent already bought the Newtronics kit then do read and then consider about the RDD CDI kit from here before you make your decision.

I gotta say thats a beautiful pussy right there. First I thought there was a puppy behind a small cat doing something naughty :P hehe.

Anyway,welcome once again.

Im looking forward to hear how she sounds, since I have never heard it run before :) I worked as a motorcycle mechanic for a couple of years, but I never got to hear one of these. (Two strokes are very rare here).

I got the newtronic kit for free, so I think I will use that one :)

goodtindaug (sp?) just had nuckle wosrt and salmon cavair for breakfast. planning on taking it to the gold trail in the coming summer? looks like a good build. if you have the change go for a chinoy system. opens up the the engine and a lot more lighting not that you need that in the summer. lol p.s. got to love velocity stacks for the old school look!

Hi there Sven, I didnt understand to much of what you just said. (I guess "goodtindaug" was ment to be "Guten Tag?" As in good day?, thats german, im from Norway, we say "God Dag" over here :) )

And what do you mean with "velocity stacks" and "gold trail"?

i shouldnt type before coffee. velocity stacks :funnels straped to your carbs intakes. golden trail : some where on the coast between hell and oslo, road that goes up the side of a shear mountain face. a oncoming tour bus scared me wet on a switch back half way up.
