About this model
About the Yamaha RD 350
The Yamaha RD350 is a Japanese two-stroke twin produced across several generations from 1973 to 1995. The air-cooled original (1973–1975) made around 39 hp; the liquid-cooled RD350LC (1980–1982) produced 47 hp; and the YPVS variant (RD350F, 1983–1995) extracted around 59 hp from just 347 cc using Yamaha's Power Valve System. Combining low weight (~147 kg) with exceptional power density, the RD series became a cult motorcycle that underpinned Yamaha's racing programme for over a decade.
The RD350 is not for beginners: the two-stroke powerband and abrupt power delivery demand experience and anticipation. On European club circuits and sweeping roads it was a favourite of amateur racers and keen tourers alike. Main rivals were the Suzuki GT380 and Kawasaki H1 500. Well-preserved examples today are collectibles with an active owners club scene.

Before you buy
What to check before buying
- Check pistons and cylinder bores for scoring and wear; two-strokes need regular top-end rebuilds, especially after hard use.
- Inspect the YPVS valve (F-models) for carbon build-up and worn servo motor: a failed valve causes flat power through the mid-range.
- Check the water pump and cooling hoses for leaks on LC models; hoses age and crack after forty-plus years.
- Ask about the exhaust expansion chambers: original pipes are rare and expensive; aftermarket items significantly change the power curve.
- Check the electrics for correct wiring and condenser condition; a common fault on bikes that have been stored for extended periods.
