2-Stroke Tease: 1973 Yamaha RD350 Almost Runs, RD250 Rips! #vintagemotorcycle #motorcyclerewind #RD350 #lokithor In this episode, we drag out a 1973 Yamaha RD350 that hasn’t made a sound in decades. This little two-stroke rocket was one of the hottest things on two wheels back in the day—if you were brave enough to ride it. With its legendary reed-valved twin and a reputation for wheelies and high-side crashes, this RD350 earned its nickname: The Giant Killer. But this one? It’s been sleeping a long time. Seized, neglected, and forgotten. We check compression, free things up, clean out the carbs, and do everything we can to get this ring-ding legend to fire up again. Will it bark to life, or will it fight us every step of the way? Either way, you’ll get plenty of smoke, frustration, and probably some bad decisions along the way. 🛠️ Subscribe to Motorcycle Rewind for more revivals, adventures, tips, and stories from the garage.
