Yamaha Other description

THIS IS A UNIQUE 74 YAMAHA RD 350. I WAS 18 IN 1974. I LOVED MOTORCYCLES BUT UNFORTUNATELY, I COULDN'T AFFORD MUCH. WHEN I WAS OLDER, I DECIDED I'D GET ONE AND TRICK IT OUT JUST LIKE THE GUYS DID BACK THEN. THIS IS WHAT I DID.

1.     BEFORE I RIDE ANY OLD BIKE, I PUT ON THE BEST MODERN TIRES AVAILABLE ($275)
2.     NEW SEAT COVER AND FOAM, AND HAD THE STAINLESS POLISHED ($200)
3.     DG PIPES ($325)
4.     CARRERA REAR SETS ($300+)
5.     AFTER TWO YEARS OF LOOKING, I ACTUALLY FOUND A SET OF SHEET METAL PAINTED IN 1974. IT IS JUST THE COOLEST 2-TONE METAL FLAKE WITH A FADE. THE PAINT HAS A COUPLE OF SCRATCHES OF THE
        TANK (400.00)
6.     I FINALLY FOUND A PERFECT NEW FRONT FENDER ($135)
7.     PREMIX 
8.     FRONT FORKS REBUILT 
9.     I WANTED SOME GOOD QUALITY SHOCKS. I TALKED TO THE ENGINEERS AT WORKS PERFORMANCE. THEY DESIGNED A SLIM LINE SET PERIOD CORRECT AS POSSIBLE. THEY POWDER COATED THEM IN ALL
       BLACK AS OPPOSED TO THE NORMAL CHROME ($425. OUCH)


LASTLY, THE ODOMETER ON THE MOTORCYCLE WAS NOT CORRECT WHEN  I PURCHASED THE MOTORCYCLE. WHEN I BOUGHT IT, THE READING WAS 5,000 MILES AND IT WAS NOT WORKING. I FOUND A VERY NICE USED ONE ON EBAY.

WELL, I HOPE MY BABY FINDS A GOOD HOME. I REALLY DON'T WANT TO PART IT OUT IT BUT I WILL IF IT DOESN'T SELL FOR A FAIR PRICE.

This Is How You Ride A 125cc Two-Stroke + Video

Fri, 09 May 2014

It’s too bad two-stroke motorcycles are quickly declining. The lightweight and hard-hitting machines are a blast to ride. They’re all but gone from the street scene (thanks emission laws), but thankfully you can still find some on the dirt side.
