Title: 1976 Yamaha RD400 LSR $10K - eBay - Lakeland, FL

(not mine)
Looked up the current record on the AMA site and it's 128.345 mph for this bike. Our late esteemed member Mark Atkinson still holds the 500-M-AG record at 140.723 (saw his name in the list)
The eBay listing would probably benefit with a better description and marketing. I did a little online digging and came up with this: https://www.contimotousablog.com/continental-conticlassicattack-bonneville-speed-record/
(story says it's a '77 model)
