1973 Yamaha RD-350 race bike

Starting my dads RD-350 two stroke racing bike. It was original raced at Brainerd international race way in Brainerd MN. It would do 130+ going out of corners. When it was raced it did have bigger carbs and jugs, but the pistons are still the same. This bike likes to run at 8 to 10k rpm, where the power band it at.

do you mean mph or kph? and where do you get pipes like those?

[kidcorvair]

@supersmrf It's mph. They are non original expansion chamber pipes. Very good sounding and they let the bike breath very well. I have no clue on where you could get a pair. Try some motorcycle discussion forums for them.

I had a 75 RD250 with a 350 top end , rejetted carbs lowbars and chambers. The chambers really woke it up. Hit the pipe at about 6 grand and it seemed to have no limit on revs , kept pulling at 9-10 grand although it was really spinning at that point. -TM

very good i can see why people like these so much now

@supersmrf Oh, and I don't think they've been available since the 80s-I only ever saw them for sale the day I bought mine in 1988.

[AvonSearider54]

@supersmrf They look like Devil pipes-I ran a set on a GT250 back then.

@1robbie55382 The size of the charger has absolutely no correlation to the voltage and current output...

@albinojohn13 Stupid for a 13 year old.

[albinojohn13]

i cant wait to ride one of these, i wanna get one of those race bikes to prepare myself for a 600cc, not bad for a 13 year old

[1robbie55382]

good way to fry the electrical with that charger that big only needs a battery the size of a 9 volt to power the whole bike...I have 4 of them. Just a lil' info for ya.
