I owned an RM370A and an RM370B while I worked in Saudi Arabia in the late 70s. Superb motorcycles. Absolutely excellent power band with really strong bottom end and no high RPM spike. The suspension for the day was excellent. I briefly owned a TM400 which was absolute garbage and I dumped that bike as quick as I could sell it. Rode both of the 370s mainly on sand and neither bike ever let me down. I did chain maintenance and changed spark plugs a few times and that was about it. I did a lot of pathfinding for 4WD vehicles in sand on various types of dunes which helped prevent the trucks from getting stuck in soft sand. When I did ride on rock or gravel you had to respect the power the bike had on tap because it could do wheel stands in 4th gear. They were wonderful production motorcycles and the first good Japanese dirt bike I owned.

I'm thinking you have a set of Simmons aftermarket forks there also, as the yellow fork sliders are a giveaway, aftermarket rear shocks also, most really fast riders liked better suspension

A good friend of mine had a 79 RM400. I had a 76 250, great times.

It is nice restoration project.

Don't skip leg day. Sounds sweet.

I love these the best of vintage

I got this bike when I was 14 and weighed about 115lbs...I would put it on the kickstand and start at the top of the stroke and it was a 2 kick starter! Nobody could out drag me on this bike with my weight! Of 30+ bikes, THIS is my favorite!

I love it. They say what matters it what is under the hood. And under the hood of this truck looks great.
