This RD350B is a totally different beast because of its 2 stroke character.  This thing rocks! It maybe doesn't look it, but this thing is fast!  In the rain it is crazy to ride.... the rear wheel keeps spinning and is a total handful, even in the dry when you get on the gas. Everyone who had one of these RD350s will agree (O:
Recently I  took the top end off the engine and cleaned them up.  Not by changine the port dimensions, but by smoothing it out.... I know you are going to like what I did here if you like 2 strokes and tuning.  I also changed the carburettor and slides, reed spacers, flowed the reeds .... See link below. I documented the whole process by taking photographs of every step I made. More to come, so, check back soon, Rik.
