when i was in 9 th grade an older kid had an rd 350 with bassani chambers on it and everday after school he would wheelie back and forth across the sxhool parking lot . that was 1974 and i can still see it and smell it like it was yesterday. my memories of growing up in the 60’s and 70’s are worth more than anything money can buy . thx fellas for showing us another beautiful classic 2 stroke vike that truly was a game changer
Same experience but it was a red 350 Kawasaki triple.
Memories of my teens. Thank you guys
I've got a 73 with 3500 miles on it. Love riding that bike. So much fun. And their talk about the points.. if kept up and clean, super reliable.
I have 3 RDs and of all my bikes, it is the only one that pulls the heartstrings like no other. It is beautiful hearing Billy talk! Legends!
Loved my RD 350, one of bikes I regret sekling
I had the brown 250 when I was fourteen. Great bike. Car pulled out in front of me at fifty. Not good. Lucky to be alive. Flew over the car, landed on the side of the road, broken bones, lots. Bike was actually rebuilt and I enjoyed it.
My cousin bought one new,he loved that bike,pampered it,waxed it,then he let me drive it. I ripped through the gears front wheel skyward! He never let me ride it again...
I had the same year. With chambers sound brings back memories! No helmet era
I miss the days when a guy could pick up an RD for 400 to 600 bucks.i had damn near every color including that color The best bang for the buck there used to be! So much fun the wheelies and curvy roads!
Awesome! Awesome bike Billy! 1974 Yamaha RD 350 The guy did an awesome job on it. It almost looked like a cafe racer I absolutely love the sound of it. What an amazing treat! Thank you Ken. Great video! Ronnie New England motorcycle museum number one it's amazing that you can ride that motorcycle on track. What a great bike! Love hearing the stories. Thank you!
That was my first street bike I bought in the mid 80's, it was past its first flush of youth but it was awesome in town and it was a wheelie king, beautiful specimen with the right mods 11:50
I love the professor that brother has been around and done it all been there done that super cool dude he brings a lot to the channel that brother has mad skills for days💚👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇲✌🏼
What a classic machine!
The vee touch, the purple and chrome, and the great jetting. What a great machine
Billy and an RD is a match made in heaven. Hey Ken, you could give this to Billy for his Christmas bonus!
I had a Yamaha RZ350, and when she came on song the horizon reeled in quickly.
And the fuel tank drained quickly........
i had a 75 350, 77 400, 79 daytona 400, and a 1990 rz350 great bikes , fun to ride
thats right , at my high school there was this skinny kid that had that kawi 500 and that thing would billow smoke all the way down the exit rd , its smelled good and sure was fast . good times
That Kawi triple!
Wow I had one too..mine was orange an black..had bassannis on it..k&ns..an jetted..it did hellacious second to third gear wheelies!!snappy kappy❤🇦🇷🇺🇦❤️✌️✌️
I had on also, same pipes to from Dennis Kirk. We made it into a 3 wheeler with a Kxt250 frame, what a ride!! Lol
I even have the same pipes!

I had the older r5 350 with dg pipes. At one time you could get them through dennis kirk. But no more. There very light bikes a great first bike .

Not even a street bike guy and I would ride that!
This is a Charlie Tuna race bike! Ask Bill!
Skipjack 4 life 🎣
What a machine, and it is easy capable of running off road farm trails 👣 all day long 👏 🤠💯🤟
The RD 350 is one of the best of all time!
Yep she's a Yami🎉🎉
Wow man that bike has probably never ran that good it's top shelf baby what a dime pie it's crazy I'm getting notifications on videos that were loaded up 4 days ago but it's all good hope everybody has a great one man oh man this is a bad Sum"Bich💪🏻💪🏻💚👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇲✌🏼
Seat is just perfect work bike comfort machine 🤠🤟 with a beautiful woman 👩 👱♀️ on pillion ❤😅😇🙏💯
Second yr of Reed valve induction, crisp throttle response to say the least,bike was light,handled well & six speeds if memory serves me..
I think when I worked at a shpp in the 80's he had his RZ in there getting tuned for Daytona. 1984/1985 maybe.
And she's got my favourite old school thick ALLOY WHEELS that are now priceless unobtanium 🤠💯🤟
British racers call those vintage style "piss catchers." Shouldered alloy rims. Buchanan still sells them in several brands. Borrani, Excel, Akront. They are recent.
I had a 1974 with JL expansion chambers. They were supposed to be the best, back in 1974.
She'd look well with marzocchi piggy back rear shocks 🤟🤠
I came home after my 1st deployment and dad wouldn't let me drive car he had bought for me cause I was short on price, didn't matter cause Raw Dog was in garage and I felt free on that bike
Unfortunately when we were teenagers. A very good friends brother in-law. Turned his into a dirty bike bike, for my very good friend. It was a yellow gold one if I remembered right. And I knew better to get behind him when we road. Very sad to think about that bike today.
and thx for the reply
I thought I just had cheap points. I have to adjust my 73 rd 350 about every 150 miles. I use a timing light now. Points and timing. 10 or 15 minutes tops.
I found a timing light at Home Depot that has a 2 stroke setting also can set degrees to “0”
I had the same bike - the bars and rims back in the 80s great bike. What's the price on that one?
street banshee, before it was glamis cool........
I want a RD 400
Straighten the head light
I saw that too
All this PLUS it's a YAMAHA 2 stroke you NEED to be AWAKE.
Should have helmet on
