Pasha Afshar of Pasha Racing is well-known in the world of motocross, but he isn’t only interested in dirt. Here’s an impressive custom RD400F Daytona Special that he put together.

We could tell you all about how awesome RD400s are, but frankly this example (VIN: 2V0003175, Engine #: 2V0-003175) is so far from stock it doesn’t even matter.

The GPS-enabled odometer shows 94 miles, which reflects mileage on the motor since it was rebuilt. The chassis has roughly 470 miles on it.

Modifications:
The motor was built by Terry Varner of Varner Motorsports. It has zero miles on it since the build. It features DG heads, VForce intakes, and UNI foam filters.

Brembo calipers and rotors, steel braided brake lines (front and rear), and a fork brace.

Everything is set off with a custom paint job.

The Japanese writing on the tail translates to “Daytona”.

Race Tech gold nitride forks with gold valve kit.

Steering damper.

Moto Carrera swing arm and rearsets.

Hagon shocks.

Custom exhaust specifically made for this bike with a HVCcycle silencers.

HVCcycle oil filler cap.

KTM/Brembo hydraulic clutch.

It is riding on Pirelli Sport Demon tires with date codes of 4612 and 1913.
