That thing is period sick AF.

Of course, the styling is up for debate, but the part spec is hard to deny.

Whew! That's a lot of teal...with different colors, that bad boy would be more appealing to me. But Jim's right; it this were 1977, we'd be tripping over each other to bid on it. :thumbs:

Evrytime I see this posted it just never looks right.  I think it's the way the front cowl is mounted.  It looks out of place.

Those Emgo Viper type fairings never look good on any bike. They are just too big.

its not a viper. but i agree, they only look good on cb750 or kz1000 sized bikes. you pull that off, lower the headlight a bit and its passable

Flat gold and anodized blue not a good combo.

That thing does not look right even for 1977. It's awful. But there is a lot of good parts on it. Would make a good parts bike.  :umm:

From earlier this year:

"Post Listing Update: This RD350 did not get any action at the BIN of $9,000."   9K!? :eek:

Bikes are kinda like women.  Even if not perfect looking, if they treat you right, run tight, and don't put up a fight, they're alright. I just made that up. Watch out Slim Shady! :metal:
