Hi everyone my brother Darryl has brought X2 powder valves ,one is a rolling chassis rd 350 r the ugly one well I think it is ! And a 31 k with wrong bits on both have UK log books ,so out of the two he's going to build a hybrid ,think we're going to use the f2 frame as it's got two lovley tanks and good side panels where the 31 k the tank is shot and it's got no rear panels ,it's all aload of old s"*t really but he got them for a good price so it should be worth it ! .we got the 31 k running not been started for years and it ran well I was surprised so thsts good news ,were going to build it all up in the f2 frame using all the good bits and go from there really ππ

Defo and F1 and an R.
Good project bikes I reckon. Dont run the engine on the road without doing the crank seals.
F1 tank dent looks like an easy pop out, so unless its rusty its worth saving as well.

Hi Chris Glad you got all the project parts - I think you got a great deal, and I'm sure Daryll will be able to build a nice bike from all the parts, plus sell on the spares that will recoup him a fair bit to fund the rebuild Genuine bargains are very thin on the ground these days Look forward to the project progressing Dusty
