It is a very reliable machine. Spares are easy to get.

Tech specs:

175cc 2-stroke engine developing 9bhp@5000 rpm.

I guess the bike in the picture is a CDI variant with a 4 speed gearbox.

If u r getting it at a reasonable cost, buy it now.

Dont see to many of them.

I have the worshop manual and the parts catalog.

Will be glad to help in any way I can

Hey!!! Looks like u have the original speedometer with the tell tale lights on it ...

One lamp shows if u have pressed the rear brake lever on the bike.


History of the bike:

It was made in the mid eighties to the early 1990.

Production of Rajdoot bikes stopped in 2003.

The Super-D also came with Ceriani type forks like we have on the RX etc. It was designed taking styling cues from the RD350 like the mudguards, seat, head/block shape etc. Not a very collectible machine.

I havent come across many spares for the Super-D. All i could find was both the mudguards. Engine parts can be found as it shares its engine with the Rajdoot 175. Its been many years i am looking for the complete lock set but still havnt found any. Same goes for the meters.

I doubt on this one; reason being that, look at the front setup of Rajdoot which is quite different from the setup of RD350.

Please try and resist the urge to modify / remodel the bike in any way.

No offence meant, but I really do not understand why people want to plan mods even before they buy vehicles.

Remember that these are out of production bikes and need to be treated like classics, not as lab experiments.

The same line of thoughts have rendered all LT RD350s to become almost extinct.

I see 4 speed RX135s going down the same way. All are converted to 5 speed porting.

Hope u see where I am coming from.

RegaRDs,

Alok

Like Sixspeedtwin says, please do not even think of putting any alternative parts esp. cosmetic ones. If the tank is rusted, you can still get it treated so that it'll last for some more time. How about putting up a pic so we all know if it exactly will be worth restoring.

These Rajdoots are common in my area. Still lots of village guys use them
If he is looking for any spare part, Let me know. I can get you some (Used ones though ) and some new ones too.
