It was the premier sport lightweight of the early 70's. It was evolved from the front drum-braked, 5 speed Yamaha 350cc "R5". | 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]].
