I have a 1975 one of these with the hideaway cluster but she needs so help she's not been on the road since 1996 I'm more than likely going to go the same route as you because with premixing because Ive not had good results with my past rx7s and RX8 and for a almost 50 year old bike I think premixed is the right thing to do. I'm going to keep my cluster and a the signal but the rest is getting modified parts are to hard to come by at a good price even if I can find anything for it the chrome is shot on this bike on the metal and plastic please put up more videos about this bike my rotary brother.
I cant wait to see you fully restore this rotary motorcycle! Sadly there aren't many videos about how to work on the RE5.
