RD350/400 EXPANSION CHAMBERS

Spec II's expansion chambers were first conceived in 1974. Through the years, they have done duty on Championship-winning RDs and street-going Cafe RDs. All the while, they have been benefiting from a steady program of refinement.

Ground clearance is an important consideration at Spec II. Our expansion chambers are not inline stampings. This allows us to offer the most ground clearance for the achievement of high cornering speeds. On some models of the RD series, Spec II makes two models of chambers. One model will clear the stock footpegs and the other model is for RDs equipped with rearsets.

Aluminum silencers are not all the same. Spec II's silencers are a snap to maintain. They feature an internal snap ring for baffle removal. The all bolt construction offers easy replacement in case of damage. Finally, our pipes produce a restrained yet exciting sound.

RD350/400 MIKUNI CARBURATORS


RD Carburetor Kits - 34MM Mikunis
 

These carburators are all supplied with custom-made cables and jetting specifications derived from our extensive racing program.

34MM carborators are suitable only for the extensively modified RD. WIth stock reed cages, on fully modified engines only, dyno testing has demonstrated increases in power above 9000 RPM, although full throttle power below 5000 RPM was substantially reduced. Power through the range of 6000 to 9000 RPM remained the same. WIth the above information, and the fact that RD400 pistons tend to come apart if RPM is sustained at 10,000, we do not recommend 34MM carburators, with the stock reeds, for low maintenance applications.

WIth the TZ reed conversion, 34MM carburators are the only way to go. With conservative throttle application (i.e. - not fully open) below 5000 RPM, this combination produced excellent low RPM response with terrific power increases from 6500 RPM up.

Air filters are supplied with carburators, along with throttle and oil injection cables.

Please note also that air filters that fit stock carburators will not fit the larger, more efficient intake bells of the 34MM carburators.

Part # 11351 - Fits RD350A,B '73-'75
$299.95
Part # 11401 - Fits RD400 '76-'78, C,D,E

RD Carburetor Kits - 30MM Mikunis
 

When these specially jetted carburators are installed with Spec II chambers, the combination results in a whopping 26% increase in peak power over stock.

Install these 30MM carburators on an already Spec II modified and chamber-equipped RD engine, and you will note power increases of 12% in the peak (9000 RPM) and 16% in the midrange (5000-6000 RPM).

Carburator Kits include :

1. Custom-jetted carburators, right and left idle screws;
2. Custom manufactured cables;
3. K&N high-volume filters;
4. Complete instructions.

Please specify whether your engine is stock or modified when ordering. Please note also that air filters that fit stock carburators will not fit the larger, more efficient intake bells of the 30MM carburators.

RACING SWINGARM KITS

Spec II's expertise in producing horsepower often brings out the weaknesses in a motorcycle's handling. One of the worst chassis problems that motorcycles have is weak swingarms. Spec II has come to the rescue with our F-1 Racing Swingarms. High strength materials and advanced construction techniques result in an ultra strong design. Also, internal alunimum chain adjusters offer the choice of two axle positions : stock and 1.5" longer. Special design allows the use of wider rims and tires.
