I need to sell off some riders to fund and make room for the GT750 project build, and get my Guzzi back on the road. Too many handlebars in the garage! Here is the write up for my two RD400s and the T500. The bikes are all stock and complete down to the center stands, everything works properly, oil injection is present and in use in all three bikes. These aren't restorations, but clean daily riders. Whatever the bikes needed maintenance wise to be back on the road, they got.
Ok, I pasted the descriptions below of the individual bikes, as well as a link to each bikes pictures. Feel free to ask if there are any questions.
Thanks for any interest
Mark

Ahh, my fault on that. I didn't think about you have to be logged to see their for sale section. I'll go through and add the text here.jabcb wrote:Oops, should have been a bit more clear.

Re: Bikes for Sale!
1976 RD400:
13K original miles on the bike, numbers match. It has a fresh crank, seals and top end, Avon tires, chain and front sprocket, fork tubes and seals, whatever it needed to be a good rider. The bike is clean, all stock, not restored but a decent rider. The same key works ignition and all the locks including the steering lock. I don't have many engine break-in miles on it yet due to winter. I generally like to put a few hundred miles on a bike before I sell it to make sure everything works as it should and the motor has a decent chance to be broken in properly. I'm thinking around $2800.
Here are some pics.

1977 RD400:
Yeah, it looks like a Daytona, but it isn't. It does have all Daytona bodywork, including the Daytona under seat tool box, oil tank, and a complete Daytona engine. The motor has a fresh top end with a rebuilt non-daytona crank. It has the euro spec disc brake wire wheels with alloy rims and Buchanan's stainless spokes -$1000 all in the wheels.
I built this a while ago so I don't remember everything, but I think it has new fork tubes and seals, Hagon shocks, new HVC front master cylinder. It has XS650 fork sliders so I could mount the big TZ brake disc up front. The brakes are awesome.
The paint is spray can lacquer I used while I was deciding what color I wanted to paint the bike.
I used this bike as one of my riders at the Deals Gap 2-stroke meet last year. Runs and rides excellent. One key matches the ignition, gas cap and seat. The gauges aren't original to this bike so the 20K miles don't really apply. I built this bike from the frame up as a keeper for myself, but nothing is forever.
With what the euro wheels cost, and the TZ brake I think $4000 is fair. If you want the bike cheaper I can mount up stock 400 mags and leave the big brake for about $3200. I'll sell the wheels separate after the bike sells.

Re: Bikes for Sale!
Here is my 1974 Suzuki T500 for sale. 10K original miles. This is a later model so it already has the trans oil level fix from the factory. I mounted up a 1976 GT500 fork assembly with wheel to get the internal fork springs and disc brake. It is a nice upgrade. The original forks and drum brake wheel in good condition can go with the bike if wanted.
The bike is in nice all stock original condition. I am the second titled owner since new. I did a lot of maintenance work on the bike, oem Suzuki swingarm bushings and air filter, new chain and front sprocket, new peg rubbers. I bought NOS exhaust header pipes. The chrome in general is better than average for its age. The bike runs and rides well, everything works as it should, and I used it at the Deal's Gap 2-stroke meet last year. This is my go-to bike to ride to work or on errands -the RDs will get me in trouble! There is some sun fading in the paint on the tops of the oil tank and side cover.
$3000 or close should do it.
