My mechanic's father, set times at Baylands Raceway on a Suzuki H-6 Hustler!! (secret porting!) But the man to beat was, Tommy Blackwell. Put a RD 400 engine in a YZ-465, "Desert Sled!!" Put another one, in a old "TZ-250!" chassis!! That sound of a two stroke twin, on the pipe, awesome!! Especially one ported, Lectron's, Bassini's ( Southern California made ) My RZ-350 bone stock, did s honest 115, made 40 HP. And only weighed 328;Lbs. Back then, only Eric Buell carried 'Dymags', got my full floating cast iron rotors from him too. Ah those were the days!! ✌️😎👍

From the first moment I heard the machine roar, I knew it was a two-stroke engine. Its sound is hoarse but as if it were something that arose from a metal wall that covers a deep well. I always liked two-stroke bikes, I had 2 that despite the small engine were very powerful, It is very good that they can still be used on public roads. The work done is formidable. Simple and subtle, yet powerful and elegant. In any project they will always be winning combinations.

Bought the RD125. An RD 200 was found at the Orange county dump. Swapped the engines after the 200 was abandoned in the hovercraft project. A diesel soak and piston replacement was the only real repair. Without the muffler the sound is deafening. But the real godsend was in the handlebars. I did an intersection human cannonball, riding the stuffed backpack, heading over the handlebars with a 5 year hip joint memory.

O que mais gostei nessa moto é a proporcionalidade, a harmonia do desenho, a coerência entre os componentes, volumes e peças.. e obviamente, os escapes: acho que já comentei aqui como sempre fui fã dessas "ponteiras", como eram conhecidas aqui no Brasil, apontadas para cima.. muito agressivas mesmo. Mais do que apenas purista, sou também nostálgico, e na minha infância moto potente tinha escapes agressivos, inclusive esse item era um dos principais responsáveis pelo design e aspecto geral daquelas máquinas. Por isso sempre fui, em algum grau, meio ressentido com essas tendências modernas de esconder ou minimizar esse importante componente nas motos. De tanto ver projetos modernosos, já havia até me esquecido dessas coisas.. bastou alguns segundos vendo essa moto, para voltar à lembrança uma época que tudo era mais romântico, simples e autêntico. Valeu Vitor, abraço e boa semana amigo.

Olá Amigo. Como as coisas são curiosas. Aqui em Portugal, esses escapes são também conhecidos por "escapes de ponteira". Eram muito populares com as pequenas motos de 50 cm3 a 2 tempos. A minha Honda NSR 50, também vinha com 1 desses escapes. Até que 1 dia decidi cortar a ponteira, e rodá-la mais um pouco para ficar mais levantada. Tal como Você diz, a moto ficou muito mais agressiva com a ponteira apontada para cima. Um grande abraço, e bom fim de semana. :)

I was looking for a rd350 video in your channel if you already made one the other day, and you posted one today. Glad you found and shared another masterpiece for us!

I raced 2 strokes as a kid an I think thats what made me crazy... I stepped away from them, but recently in my 50s I've ended up with 2 stroke 100cc superlight, bucket racer.... If the front wheel isn't trying to come up the back wheel is trying to spin.. This bike is off the chart , .. In Australia I have friends that bring RDs in from America ,,there worth more than gold here

I love my 84 RZ350 KR special and could never alter it. But that's a Beautiful Machine. Love it.

The RD350 was never known as the widow maker. 500 kawasaki triple was. But an awesome bike.

First of all, thank you SO MUCH for this video and all the others you've uploaded! I've been a subscriber for a few years and watch every one of your videos. I used to ride a Yamaha RD400 in the early eighties and really loved that bike! Only mods were DG expansion chambers and a K & N air filter and that was plenty, that bike screamed! But this RD350 is a stunner, such a great looking/sounding Café racer. Some favorite modifications are the cylinder head, triple trees, swingarm and breaks, just awesome! Thanks again for the up, keep up the great work!

Blew the doors off a 442, foregot about the turn at the end of the road and the gravel, that was a surprise. Six weeks in a cast up to my hip. I think that was in 74. Sued the company that left the travel on the road. Bought a house. Great bike.

From Canada....built up 14 of the 1985to 1989 versions. Still have 2 ready to go. Bought an r3 just for comparison fun. 3 engines and all original parts packed away in my shop. Part of my life. Powerband for days with a y boot k n n and boysen dual stage reed cages. 2 times oversize seems to be the perfect 16:1 ratio. Damper and fork braces are recommended...😁😁😁 Wee Hoo!

You should see the gammas, rz's, tzr's, kawi triples, honda nsr400's, etc. In Canada. They are AWESOME. We just hide them and bring em out on cool mornings and cool evenings and lay a plume of blue mman.
