Says it was stored for 35 years.

Is this the last year before they went to the 550 triple?

Looks clean.

Asking $4000 Will trade for a pre-'84 Harley or '69-'83 Kawasaki...

1989 Yamaha TZR250 3MA

https://www.ebay.com/itm/1980-Yamaha-TZR250/203034345766?hash=item2f45ca4126:g:qZwAAOSwM1Ze1Hc3.

Says it ran in 2018 in Japan but looks very crusty to me. I think it would need to totally come apart. Salvage RRR title.

Not my bike etc. But I like it!

I've been looking to buy a new naked bike or supersport. I think naked or cafe styling suits my age and ability better than a full-fairing sportbike.   

I want a no-hassle pushbutton bike I can ride everyday and my RD350 just isn't great on the highway with pickups going 80+.

I prefer vintage machinery but I'm trying to run a company and I just don't have much time for wrenching and restoring.

I really like the looks of the Husky Vitpilen 701. I just don't know if I want a single-cylinder.

The KTM Duke 790 is nice also. Both of them are on my short list along with the Yamaha MT 09 or MT 10.

Seriously considering a Kawi Z900RS Cafe. That is #1 at the moment.

If price were no object I really like the MV Agusta Brutale. The Superveloce is beautiful in black. But I can't justify $20k+.

What are you guys looking at and drooling over? Let's set a price limit of $13k. 500cc and up.

TZ 350 auction. In DeWitt, Iowa.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/1973-Yamaha-TZ350/202991680285?hash=item2f433f3b1d:g:BwQAAOSwMQ5evfyX.

Wonder if I could register as an RD? Bet I could in TN...

Not my bike etc. Wish it was...

If I were the seller I would have washed it before posting on EBay.

Guys,
  I have heard from colleagues abroad. This virus is bad. Worse than any flu since 1918. Don't ignore the warnings. Stay home or ride alone. The only thing that is going to solve this crisis is limiting human transmission.

In Italy the army is removing the bodies from hospitals because the morgues are overwhelmed. Thousands will be cremated en masse. I heard this from my friend in Pescara.

In Lebanon people are dropping dead in the street and the bodies are not collected because people are afraid to touch them. I heard this from my colleague in Amman, Jordan.

I'm non-political but our president is a fuc*ing moron and downplaying the potential consequences. The American public will not take this seriously until people they love die. I don't want that to happen to anyone.

I work in healthcare and I have contacts all over the world. The danger is greater than Fox news is telling you. Please stay home and ride this out. The time is NOW to remove yourself from everyone except family. Please. This is not a time for bravado. It is not overblown. The government is failing to act. The only hope is to isolate.

A senior physician I know told me that millions will die in the U.S. if something significant isn't done. Trump doesn't know a virus from his wife's asshole. I have a freezer full of meat, ammo, and 3 gallons of whiskey. I'm home for the next month. I HOPE YOU ALL WILL DO THE SAME. Let's stop this before it kills people we care for. STAY HOME. Going broke is better than being dead.

I spent a month on a ventilator in 1995 from serious pneumonia. Almost killed me. I was wasted, crazy, and gone for 2 years after. I lost 80 lbs in 3 weeks. My hospital bill was $249,000. This will do that to you. STAY HOME!!!!

This thing needs a Suzuki GT750 engine...

https://www.ebay.com/itm/1980-Other-Makes/143530498442?hash=item216b15998a:g:-SQAAOSwga9eEi2I.

It was a Yamaha 4T twin 400.

That's a lot of money! Instant collection.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/1975-Kawasaki-H1-H2-Z1B/202847936468?hash=item2f3aaddfd4:g:I9QAAOSw8V9d66un.

I seriously doubt these are worth what he is asking. What do you guys think? I can't get past $50k in my head.

My wallet chokes on paying 4 grand for an RD400.

Looks really nice but price too high for a 380 at $4750

Don't know about these. Same seller. Look like basically stock with pipes, bars, and fairings. $2900 and $1875.

The 350 could be Vesco glass? Is the tail on top of the stock seat? Hmmm.

https://atlanta.craigslist.org/nat/mcy/d/atlanta-yamaha-rd250/6991443457.html

Seller's comments are slightly amusing. Look to have been sitting in a garage for a while. I would say they are period pieces. No titles.

General Chatter / Tab-Loc Radial Head for RD 350?
August 27, 2019, 04:13:50 PM
On EBay. I would have put in the watch section but I have never heard of these.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/DG-Sunburst-Head-Yamaha-RD-250-350-400-R3-YDS-Suzuki-X6-Bridgestone-Tab-Lock-A7/254228071942?hash=item3b312c8606:g:YyIAAOSwpCFczOpo

Y3 designation. Looks to me like a DG knockoff. Anybody know anything? They were $29.95 a pair when new.
