I picked up this '75 RD200 today from a guy right down the street. $175!

Needs a new battery and some reassembly, and then I think it'll be ready to rock and roll!!! [moto]

RD's are way

Keep us posted on your progress. You gonna cafe that thing out?

Get it running and licensed up. Then try to remove 100lbs from it as you slowly loose your mind into the Cafe-Racer era of the 70's.

Oh yeah, and post pics as you do so we have the evidence needed to call the guys with the long sleeved white jackets.

Is that speedo custom from OCC?

Not sure, but I've never seen an OCC bike with that many miles!

Love me some of those '70's bikes. They go anywhere do anything, with something like 75mpg and they were just impossible to fully kill. Anything that went wrong was something that you or a guy you knew could fix in an afternoon for a 12pack and materials.
