Yamaha Other description

1973 RD350
  I bought it out of long term storage. I cleaned the carbs, put a new battery in and it fired right up. I have far too many projects, and not enough room. This one must go. Still needs finishing. Master cyl needs rebuild, Y pipe is petrified ($47 brand new) and general cleaning. Bike is completely stock and original as far as I know.  Has minor surface rust on some of the chrome here and there, and a ding in the right side of the tank. I have no title, thats how I got it. Here in NH that is not a problem, if its a problem for you do not bid. Bill of sale only.

(Skip to 7:35 for the fast ones.) CABS is a system used by Superbike teams that makes use of the R1’s digitally controlled throttle. When you change up a gear, the bike blips in the perfect amount of revs to save time on track and make downshifts as quick and easy as clutch-less upshifts.
