I'm looking for either of these RD400 racebikes. Last seen in Utah and could possibly be in Colorado. Any info is helpful.
First is this bike (but now has a yellow frame).

Pipes are Spec II, clip-ons from motocarrera, has an EGT, headlight mounts and tach from JC Whitney and the tach comes with a mount that bolts right up. He's currently running 34mm flatslide carbs but has had problems sorting it out. "the front mounted coils are now gone and replaced with Ultra ignition from John at Pro-Flo. Oh yeah the frame was painted a bronze color with a Hammerite finish. Front fender is an Acerbis dualsport fender no longer made. Rear shocks are Red Wings with springs painted Epoxy black. " "*No battery and less wires!! Starts on the second kick everytime. Bell bicycle clamp-on light (for that extra bit of legalness should I get stopped.) Rear tailight is an enduro light ordered through Chaparral. Master Cylinder from RF 900. Rear seat is a Harley RR250 ordered through Airtech for $145. Throttle assembly is a Motion Pro from Pro-Flo with grips from Lockhart Phillip. heads have been milled. Has Pro-flo reed cage mods with TDR reeds. Reinforced the fiberglass seat pan with some 1/16 aluminum sheeting which was shaped and runs from the front of the seat and folds up to the rear hump underside of the seat. Pop rivited in place.

The other bike looked like this in it's last rendition.
