RD350's and RD400's were cool two-stroke streetbikes that gave the inline-4's of the late 70's/early 80's a nice run for their money for a bit... When I started riding (in '85), a lot of my friends had Rd's... Cool, fast, custom, and fast cafe racers! The later version, RZ350, was water cooled and more modern in many ways.

great now i need to figure out what to do. it has been setting for around 20yrs. i was thinking of stuffing it into a quad frame but i might make a few passes with it in the bike chassis. first i need to go through everything. 10's sound way to fast for a 400ccbike but i coule be wrong, i would be happy if i hit 12's then its going in the quad frame. thanks guys...
