#1 Post by wolfgangh » Sat Dec 09, 2017 2:43 pm

Today I purchased my RD500 #4. So far, I had a stock one in RZV colors, my MARLBORO YZR500 Rainey race bike, and the YZR500 ANTENA3 replica.
The new member is a YZR500 Checa replica, even signed by Carlos himself. It has a stock engine (no tuning), stock carbs, and JL pipes.

My plan is to optimize it (some engine work, carb setup, suspension improvement, etc) and then most likely sell it - unless I fall in love with her and keep it, as it happens almost everytime.

I am now trying to post pictures from my Dropbox account, hope you can see them:

Do you know how to deal with dropbox? I put the pics in a public folder, copied the image adress and pasted it via IMG function - same as with Photobucket earlier. I can see them, but of course I am the dropbox account owner

This bike is from a customer of mine - he bought the fairings, swingarm, pipes and some more parts from me. He saw my ANTENA3 bike and wanted something similar, I was a bit involved in this build.
He lives only 30 km from me, has a beautiful bike collection as well. Now he wants to buy a PORSCHE 997 and needs space (and maybe cash)

Best regards

Wolfgang
