forgive my ignorance but are they real? Front end looks suspiciously like a 749 or summin, bodywork looks to modern etc!!!:hehe:

there what the old school stokers would look liek today if they still were being made, the RD350 looks superdukey or SV650N’y:D:D

ah yea, was gonna say! I know the RD is an old bike so thought summin was up! They look stunning tho - has one of them got about 6 exhausts? Or maybe its 5 - 1 on each side then 3 underseat!

hehe, nice… Although very concerned about the positioning of the exhaust pipe on the RD, straight onto the back wheel? two-stroke oil straight onto the back wheel??? doesnt sound that safe…

Nice! How things could have been if history had taken a different turn. . . :cool:

I bet they would all be really tasty bikes too - probably a lot more satisfying to ride than big bore IL4s. . .

That one’s got 4 pipes - two stacked GP-stylee on the right hand side, two under the seat (Yam / Suzuki did the underseat pipe thing in the 80s, doncherknow)
While they all look good, the 350 just doesn’t look as good as the original YPVS.
I’d have another one tomorrow if I could afford to run another bike - my 350 was a fantastic bike - the most fun bike I’ve ever ridden.Just shows it’s not all about horsepower, it’s about FUN :smiley:

old strokers were fun…nice set of “spannies” ask ya dad…blue haze n castrol smell oooh ya cant beat it, loved my old GT380 triple :slight_smile:
