    "What they do have is an implacable, unrelenting presence and movement that bespeaks massive power lurking behind paint and chrome. They don't wail like a screeching ninja, the don't rumble like a harley. They just growl like a spactic, stressed out badger waiting to rip your face off and eat your soul." Trainzz~RIP~

      They really did, the Yamaha RD's had were Reed valve motors and could hold their own against the Kawasaki H2's. My buddy has a RD and I was picking on him and shown him a H2 750 that came up for sale. He showed me an article about the RD 350's beating out the H2!
