      Hi All. After long gap. I was busy collecting parts. Coming to new updates on the RD 350 - Overhaul -aby 4799.

      Ordered the Clutch plates from Japan and also RD 350 U.S spec Spedometer with which I complete collecting all the parts and will be starting the work next week.
      Planning to complete the Project by end of April or if possible by end of March. There is much of good learning went on in the gap as I am all new to the 2 stroke world.
      Like alwasy thanks to Naveen who is making this happen every time i get irritated or depressed when the budget is going high. IF it wasn't his encouragement I would have not even kept a dead line for my project as i have givenup at mant situations.

                  Awesome dedication Santosh. Way to go!
                  Appreciate your hard work, patience and perseverance.

                  I too have bought ProX 1st oversize(0.25) pistons, but not yet installed. Still need some more spares before I start the rebuild.

                  All the best for your rebuild.
