Restored – 1974 Yamaha RD350

In Japan, Sport by AbhiLeave a Comment

Post Listing Update: This RD did not get any interest at the opening bid of $3,500.


It’s restored, but not stock. Would you ride this RD?

Per the seller, this RD350 (VIN: 351205831) “was restored from the ground up” with “pretty much new everything” – he says the only thing that wasn’t touched was the instrument cluster. He wanted to make a cafe racer out of it, which is why the seat, exhaust, blinkers, and foot controls are not stock. He has $8,700 in receipts of work including a motor rebuild, repaint of the frame and bodywork, new wiring harness, aftermarket pipes, and more.

The odometer shows 12,705 miles and the seller calls out three issues – the front brake reservoir has some paint issues, presumably from brake fluid that leaked at some point, the right cylinder has a chipped fin, and the seat shaving “isn’t perfect”. Looks like it’d make for a fun runabout, and the seller also has an unexpected TW200 custom for sale if you’re into that.

Find this RD350 for sale in Boise, Idaho with an unmet opening bid of $3,500 (and no reserve beyond that) here on eBay.
