Bought this for $500.00 off CL from a dusty garage in Big Bear where it had sat for years with no carb and a rag stuffed into the intake. Found the carb in pieces in a box in that same garage. Stuck the carb on, checked the oil, sprayed starting fluid into the carb and it tried to fire on the 2nd pull. I drained the dinosaur goop, fresh oil, new gas, new jets and fired right up. I wanted a a little cruiser like this so my last kid at the age of 7 could follow me around in the dunes on his 50cc quad (at the time-He's on a 90cc now). I now use it to work on my property in the hidezlife.
Here's the video of when I bought it. FF to 4:17
If you look at the upper left corner of the first pic, you can see the hay bale in front of the tree they left standing out on the track in the early days. It sure is strange to see them racing on topsoil there, like very early Carlsbad photos. They still ran thru the water at the three creek crossings, one of which is below the line of sight in that first photo.
It would have been fabulous dirt that day had it not kept raining. That may be Ake Jonsson coming off that dropoff in the second photo, but he didn't get much roost on his number plate from anybody but lappers that day.
Old bike is a project not yet coherent enough to take a picture of.
Bought it almost exactly a year ago as a tag along with 77 Pursang that I really wanted.
Got it cleaned up and running last summer with the help of my dad.
Ended up racing it last Sep at the Midwest VMX Race of Champions at Byron.
Right side shift is weird after 35 yrs of the other side...
My brother and i always wanted to do a rebuild together so we started looking and won this on ebay, many years ago it was a rust bucket but has been an interesting journey that even took us to Athena Oregon for the 50 Year anniversary of Hodaka. That was a fun few days where even Brad Lackey, Tommy Croft and Preston Petty came along.

Bust that thing out!
It came with a plastic tank. Vital’s very own Newmann sent me a BEEEEAUTIFUL “Newmann restored and painted” tank for it. She’s got Ohlins shocks, 41mm forks and all sorts of little RC trinkets. All I need is an RC swing arm!
1973 RD350. Got it in a couple boxes about 15 years ago.
Nice scooter, btw!
What chambers are those?
Have to finish another first and then get this rolling.
