    What a great RD350 Video - Nothing but the sound of 2 stroke music thru the whole ride. Your bike sounds awesome. I am still working on getting mine road worthy - I start it up every couple of weeks to keep this going and just love the sound. Great job on your bike - keeping the History alive and on the road.

    In the late 70s, my boyfriend, who worked for Yamaha had an RD400, bored out, disks drilled 2/3 pattern etc. Fastest thing around Huntington Beach,CA. He built me an RD350, and I swear, the looks on guys faces, when I'd sneak up on them and blow by them, then take off my helmet..OMG IT"S A GIRL!!! LOL. These were probably some of the quickest, and obviously the MOST fun to ride... wish I could convince my husband that I need one.

    I had a 1974 RD350A. Speedo always read 10% high, so indicating 110, it topped out at 100 MPH. Took it from MN to CA and back in 1975. Huge surge of power when the tach hit 6,000. I routinely hassled 750's. Those RD 350's were the crotch rockets of their day. I bought a 750 Yammy 3 cylinder after the 350. That was a cool bike.. Wife and I rode everywhere. Currently ride a '78 Goldwing with 24,000 actual miles. Barn find. Since when is an RD 350 a girly bike? I wish I still had mine. Enjoy!

    Here's a story about my RD350. It developed a high pitched squeak that I couldn't find a reason for, didn't seem to affect the way the bike went so I didn't look too hard to find the cause as it didn't happen all the time. Eventually someone in the little village I lived in complained about the squeak waking them up in the middle of the night so I thought I had better get to the bottom of it, as it was quite loud.
    Hunted all over the bike for anything that might be causing such a noise, brakes, chain, wheels etc, couldn't find anything. Until I sat thinking and rested my hand on the cylinder head and it moved!
    The cylinder head had worked loose and the squeak was the engine just about to seize. Tightened the cylinder head down and all went back to normal.
    Just shows what a strong little engine the RD had, it kept going and I never had any further trouble with it...great wee bikes!

Raised the ports and change the Reed valves in 87 and then it really woke up. Everyone called mine the Grandpa bike, it looks like a CB350 but they sure don't run like one.
