I'm too sick and cold to trek it over to where my RZ/RD engines are so I'm asking for a solid here. If anybody has one on the bench would it possible to confirm the RZ/RD dimensions? Th...

Re: RG500 forum

Welcome to the club! :) the rgv250 board is good. But there really isn't a RG500 forum as good as this RD/RZ forum. There is a mailing list with VERY knowledgeable folks on it ...

Re: Auxiliary fuel tank (Motion Pro)

Thanks gpaddict,

Another question: Doesn't the tank need to be vented? or do you just leave the lid on loosely?

Re: A few pics

Shoot ... found out about this a little late (on the 350 side at that). Could one of you guys maybe poke me in the ribs (500) the next time you're meeting up as I live near Burlington and would have loved to have attended. :S

Cheers

It's not that we are an unfriendly lot around here, I'm just surprised that no one has nudged you towards the search function yet :-)

Got me thinking though that it would be nice to answer all of your questions and maybe see if we could make it a sticky. Hmmm
