  • Any guess what this bike is?

    All I know is its an '84, it has no title, and appears to be a 2-stroker. Found it for sale on Rochester CraigsList. Whats it worth, how many cc's is it and how hard will it be to find parts, or rather a titled frame so I could register it?



    Looks like it would make one hell of a gocart!

    thats a rz350 , my favorite 2 stroker , parts are still available , what's he asking ? you can get a title thru a title service easier than getting a new frame , unless it's hot .

      Hah, I already figured it out I think. Looks like a RZ 350... My guess its only good for parts of a cool gocart... Man I need a garage, Id bring her home if I have a place to put it!

        I doubt its hot, I have an officer friend who can check. Some woman is selling it, she dont know what its worth and said make an offer. Ive never delt with any title services have you? I have a 79 SF that doesnt have a title and I cant get one, tried every possible way and just couldnt. Ive read some threads on here about how they work but it didnt seem like anyone had fist hand experience in doing it....

          you're very lucky I'm in virginia or it would already be in the back of my truck on the way home . I would do bad things for an rz350 (especially in kenny roberts yellow!!) . I suggest you get it while the getting is good .

          and yes I've used one title service about 4 times now and it's worked every time http://www.its-titles.com they get you a title in your name from a different state and then you can re-title it in your state .

              I would be willing to bet that would bring quite a few Ebay fun coupons as parts, even if it could not be licenced as a whole unit. Plus, that is one of the things the quad guys would kill for...a two stroke 350 engine is worth a lot to them. Almost 60 HP out of that engine stock.

              Get it and sell it off for more trinkets for your ride.

                  I want to say it was $120 but it might have been $100 even . Took about 2 weeks .

                    Yea, how come all the free bikes are so far away?

                        Hi Wade,
                        RZ350. Weighs next to nothing, goes like hell, corners on rails.
                        Alas not for me, the ergonomics are based on someone 5'-3" tall weighing 120 lbs.
                        If you chop up that potentially beautiful machine to make a gocart instead of resurrecting it bad things will happen to you.
                        If you can't register it, race it.

                          Unfortunately I doubt Im going to buy it, I might loose more than my head if I come home with that bike. Hmmm, maybe I can get my brother to buy it, isnt that what siblings are for?

                            you may want to reconsider...

                            As I mentioned before, those are worth a lot, even as parts.

                              I got her number, Im going to giver her a call and see if she has more than what in the pic. Doesnt look like it has carbs, makes me wonder what condition the engine is in... I will let you know what she says, if shes giving it away (she have no clue what it is let alone what its real value is) I might have to pick it up. If I bring it home I better get some flowers while Im out so I dont have to sleep in the dog house!
