Yamaha Other description

Up For sale is my beautiful 1975 RD350.  I bought this bike from the son of the original owner and it had been stored in his barn for the majority of its life.  It only has 3700 MILES on it.  This bike fires right up and has plenty of power! the chrome shines wonderfully with very little pitting and scratches.  The paint is glows gorgeously with very few flaws for its age.  There are a couple chips and scratches that were documented in the pictures and no fading whatsoever.  The only things that I have done to it was replace the brake light switch, replace the spark plugs, charge the battery, washed the bike up and clean the carbs.  I also partially cleaned the inside of the gas tank with very gentle biodegradable tank cleaner (Workshop Hero- Metal Rescue) and it will clean up great!  Everything works on this bike! All the lights, brakes, gauges, horn, etc. This bike shifts through all the gears smoothly and runs  great.  With all of this said it still is a 40 year old bike and is not absolutely perfect.  It will need general maintenance for a bike this old, for instance a tiny bit of oil leaks out if it sits for a long period of time so it will probably need an engine seal and the gearbox oil replaced.  With a little bit of work and cleaning this bike could be a dependable street racer or a bike to add to a collection.  Once again this bike is in excellent condition for its age but it is not perfect and has little flaws that can be seen in the pictures. The only thing this bike appears to be missing is the front blinkers because the original owner put a fairing on (fairing included in the sale).  this bike is all original down to the tires other than the brake light switch that I replaced. I would encourage anyone to come check this out in person if possible.  I would be happy to answer any questions and to send more pictures.  This bike is being sold in 'as is' condition.  I will only be accepting certified cashiers checks or cash for payment. The buyer if responsible for arranging shipping or pick up within 2 weeks of the end of auction unless you talk to me about it first.  I am willing to help in anyway I can! Thanks for your interest and happy bidding!

Here is what LeoVince has to say about the new Fazer8 and FZ8 exhausts: Quick off the mark with 3 exhaust options launched for Yamaha's brand new 800cc Fazer and FZ8 models, LeoVince promise you less weight, better looks and improved performance. These new Fazers, with their R1 engines, albeit downgraded to a smaller 800cc capacity, have been designed by Yamaha to give more bottom end power.  LeoVince have finely tuned their new slip-on GP-PRO and SBK-FACTORY exhausts to further increase both power and torque throughout the whole rev range, and endow the bike with a much improved sports sound - plus a removable db baffle for increased throatiness.
