The '''RD350''' was well developed for the time, aircooled, two cylinder, Autolube equipped (automatic oil injection), 6 speed (in some  markets, such as the UK, the first model was sold in 5-speed form) [[two-stroke]], street [[motorcycle]] produced by [[Yamaha]]. It was the premier sport lightweight of the early 70's. It was evolved from the front drum-braked, 5 speed Yamaha 350cc "R5".

==Engine==
The engine was a [[air cooled]] twin, two-stroke. A 64.0mm [[bore]] x 54.0mm [[stroke]] result in a [[displacement]] of just 350.0 cubic centimeters. Fuel was supplied via a [[port]] control.  Yamaha did make a liquid-cooled variant in the [[Yamaha RZ350]].  The [[Yamaha Banshee]] engine was based on a very similar design.
 
==Drive==
The bike has a 6-speed transmission. 
 
==Chassis==
It came with a 90/90-18 front [[tire]] and a 110/80-18 rear tire. Stopping was achieved via double disc in the front and a single disc in the rear. The RD350R YPVS was fitted with a 4.49 Gallon (17.00 Liters) fuel tank.
