Hi After many years of collecting and storing bits, I've finally made a start on the build. 1991 was the last 350LC I built up from several boxes of bits, so bear with me. I'm not going to build a show condition bike....just one I can use without worrying about it getting the odd scratch or wet:) Here is the frame with RGV250 rear & front end Today I fitted a few parts including the loom....does this look about right for routing? I'm still not sure if to keep the Wranger paintwork I have a 350 engine I need stripping down to check what needs doing. The barrels look to have been machined down, so may have DT175 pistons fitted? A lot to learn here, so expect quite a few questions....

Hi Angus, and welcome to the Forum. Nice work so far - as for your question on the loom route, the main loom should be on the right hand side of the head stock, then as it goes back under the tank - in the position you have it.
Hope that helps
Cheers, Mark

Thanks Mark
I thought with the cable guide on the left hand side as you sit on the bike it routes that way. What is that guide for then... Cables?

What is that guide for then... Cables? yes throttle and tacho if barrells are machined so you only see half of the 347, then more than likely dt175mx pistons are in it at a 66mm bore giving you approx 375cc
good luck with the build, keep the wrangler look until you have it all up and running, it will be class
