recently i drove my friend's rd 350.it was a fantastic experience ,a trip down the memory line.
my friend bought the fully restored rd for a skyhigh 2lakh.
it remainded me of my first love the rx.the rd is still the most idolised bike in kerala even surpassing bullets.this old 2stroker simply outruns the p220,the ktm etc
It can hold its own even with a ninja 250.if 2 strokes were around today pulsers,ktm,apache would be commuter bikes.the rd is the greatest performance bike prosuxed in india.

Re: riding the legend,rd350

Do the four strokes of today look a bit without character compared to the hara kiri style of two strokes?

recently i rode an FZ16 and made the same comment that riding a 2stroke gives an adrenaline rush entirely different from the 4 stroke ones. even the puny 100 cc suzuki samurai was a class apart. the yamaha rx 350 was idolised by us during that time.
