Mark been following the 550 project with keen interest watching who that gent overcomes each engineering challange - kinda a two stroke drama frankly. Can't imagine what issues popped up with regards to the LC750 - a labour of love like all RD/RZ rebuilds. These builds go to the outer limits - its precision beyond my capabilites and I admire the effort - like Smoker's RZ bling-mobile noted in custom projects/restoration. However, these projects also got me thinking/dreaming hybrid (lol).

there is a hybrid in the for sale section that has most of the frame/suspension/motor problems solved .
it is tempting.but i kinda like the mostly stock with a little tweeking.

What kind of tweeking did you do? Sleeper stuff hidden under the guise of a normal (sic) RD350LC? If all ready posted Mark just let me know where it is as that would be an interesting read also.
