Hello Mark, this bike has belonged to my friend Ed Conklin for the past 25 years.

I would bet there are less than a couple of dozen in the US and only a handful on the road. :thumbup:
but how would you find out ?

Two-stroke brit, thanks for your reply. Only a couple dozen, wow. How long have you had your bike? Is yours from Canada or England? Are they different?

hi Ed, i have had my LC 18 months and it is the Canadian version.
i think there were only small differences between the CA and UK versions,
i had an x reg one "back in the day" (81 i think).
the UK ones had a pass switch (headlight flash)on the light switch gear.
and different spark plug caps(pressed metal).
that's all i remember but it was 30 odd years ago.

yours looks in great original condition
i had mine repainted so no longer original but more of a good daily rider bike.

i think yours will go for big $$ compared to the early RZs but who knows.

cheers mark

Thanks for the info :D I am new to this bike so trying to learn all I can. The only thing that bothers me about the bike is that a previous owner cut off the bracket for the side stand!!! Center stand only :? An odd feature is that you have to fold up the foot peg to start just like the H2 :o

thats weird about the side stand , i have heard of people breaking the frame by pivoting them around side stand but thats an extreme method to stop that practice. :lol:

and the footpeg thing was always fun in traffic with a pillion. :thumbdown:

the RCLCCRAZY.COM uk site has the most RDLC SPECIFIC info. and rdlc.net is great too.

cheers mark

Thanks, will check out those sites. Do you really use the LC as a daily rider? I would have no license after a week :P This bike reminds me of an old muscle car :evil: acceleration is just nasty!!!
