I have the RD350R + RZV500R (RD500LC) and they are a hoot to ride. The 350 is obviously slower but ridden well it's a lot of fun. I've not ridden a 350LC but I understand they are very flat low down and then go nuts in it's powerband! and two strokes smell lovely....................but not according to my wife!

Have you thought about advertising it on any of the RD websites?

It's a hybrid,so it's got a Powervalve engine fitted ;)
Great looks of the early LC with the great later engine (I am biased of course)

It's advertised everywhere but not for long because the longer it goes on the less I feel the need to sell.
Ebay is a strange place or is it me, there are clearly a load of people on there ready to have a crafty bid for it right at the death but honestly who on here would bid in excess of £3 1/2 K for something they hadn't seen? it's bazzare.

Oh yea, how come they aren't an everyday bike? I've had loads of these as just that, the first one I had (a 250) got 32000 miles the first year I spent on the road and it never broke down once.

I wouldn't want to ruin it by riding it in all weathers thats why to me i don't think its an everyday bike. I love the smell of 2 strokes as well

It didn't sell on ebay which I'm amazed at, I've seen loads of total shit sell for £3k plus and although I sweat buckets over it I let the auction run with a start price of £3500, I would have thrown up if someone had actually bought it at that as its got to be worth at least £4500 and no one bid, unbelievable, it's not bling enough apparently :shock:

Anyway, as a consequence of this general chavvyness I managed to raise more or less enough money for my multistrada (it's amazing how much you can get for a soul) without getting rid of the lc :dance:

So I'm chuffed.

Well done our kid :yup:

I guess you saying jokingly it's not bling enough, IMO it looks too standard to give the hybrid boys a stiffy and too modded for the purist anoraks :shut:

Yep, and really thats why you should make your own special, at the moment if it doesn't have an rgv front and back end it's crap and I shouldn't complain as I have made / sold enough of them.

or maybe it is shit.
