It was a bit tricky with the language, but, I think Uncle-in-law (so to speak) has an RD350 LC in amongst his garage of bikes. Apparently good condition and apparently not adverse to the idea of selling it. I think he said it's a 1973, but I could have that bit totally wrong. Speaking of 'wrong' would I be wrong in thinking it could be worth a nice little packet if it is indeed in good nick etc? Should I investigate further for y'all? -- Dnc B1200 - +30bhp ~|~ ZZR1100 - faster when upright V2300 - flat cap and rug ~|~ A6 2.5TDi V6 Quattro Sport MIB#26 two#54(soiled) UKRMMA#26 BOTAFOT#153 X-FOT#003

No problem - I'll see what I can do. Apart from general photos, are there any specific areas to get snaps of, or specific details? eg: "oh yeah, they're known for rotting this area" or "people often changed xyz to abc which actually halves the value" etc? -- Dnc B1200 - +30bhp ~|~ ZZR1100 - faster when upright V2300 - flat cap and rug ~|~ A6 2.5TDi V6 Quattro Sport MIB#26 two#54(soiled) UKRMMA#26 BOTAFOT#153 X-FOT#003

Luckily the air-cooled RD350 was still being made in India until fairly recently, so a lot of the parts are still being produced in vast quantities. Some of them are of dubious quality though.
