1980 RM 400 finished

Finally finished the RM. We have taken it to the track four times and have the suspension and jetting about perfect. It turned out really nice and works great at the track. Here is a pic.

Thank you for the complements. The tank is a Clarke and is their replacement for a RM 250-400. It is a bit smaller like the 125 tank though. We are headed out to the Ranch to ride the Carlsbad track today. That should be fun.
