The 1979 Yamaha RD400F Daytona. As the creator intended.

Even has the stock carbs which is rare indeed.

I'm Jealous... "Barn Find" Reader ride RD400 Daytona from Seattle.

From Chris Sharon:

Steve,
Here are a couple pictures of the RD400 I just picked up. It has been sitting since 1992 and is in pretty decent shape. There is some chrome pitting and a bit of rust here and there but over all it’s a diamond in the rough. It only has 4880 original miles on it. It still has the stock tires. Wow.

I plan on cleaning it up but keeping it stock. I’ll send more pictures as I tear into it.

That's one heck of a find!  Congrats!

Maybe the nicest RD400 Daytona I've seen.

A really stunning build. It'd be really hard to improve on this one.

Took my Daytona Special/Special out for a spin..

She still holds up pretty well..

Ok... looks like life is allowing me to pick things back up again. I've had a LOT of S#it going on in the last few months (most of it bad) but I'm going to try and (sprodically for now) keep this place going...

I'll try and get the "Bike Of the Day" going again for now with more complete stuff later on (a couple of weeks or so)

Here's todays BOTD. A very very sweet ride built by the man who runs the USA 2-strokers Website.
