Single seat cowl for RD350R (4CD)

#1 Post by swchris » Tue Aug 01, 2023 9:14 am

Hi folks, since a couple of weeks I own a 1993 brazilian RD350R bought in Italy.
As I would like to use a single seat, does anybody know if so which one is useable ?
I checked the net thoroughly but couldn't find any hint on that subject.
Maybe some expert user can help ?

regards, Chris

the factory never made a solo cowl for the 1987 and later RZ350 or RD350. I have pictures of a honda solo cowl that was adapted for the RZ350. Let me go through my files and see what I can come up with
1985 RG500(Walter Wolfe)
1984 IT490
1985 RZV500R
1997 VFR750
1992 FZR1000
RGV500
TZR500
TZR350
1990 RZ350
1971 Porsche911S

Thanks a lot, mate ! Will have a look at this VFR idea. Looks almost company made, well done !!
I guess the VFR400 is the base model you are talking about, isn't it ?
