From the seller: “Up for sale today is this garage find Yamaha R5 predecessor to the RD350, It’s in a sorry state but is a genuine matching numbers UK bike.
The previous owner bought it in 1978 rode it for a bit then seized up the top end, he took the barrels and heads off to be rebored and somehow lost them so the bike got shoved to the back of the garage which is where it stood until recently, keys and v5 have long since been lost but it is HPI Clear with only 2 former keepers.”
