The Yamaha RD350LC was a two-stroke bike produced between 1980 and 1983. Although it immediately succeeded the larger RD400, the RD350LC was powered by a smaller 347cc parallel twin two-stroke engine which actually had the same bore and stroke as the older RD350 (64 x 54mm). The RD350LC was later replaced by the RZ350 / RD350LC II / RD350 YPVS in 1983, the latter debuted their breakthrough YPVS ‘Yamaha Power Valve System’ that revolutionized the two-stroke engine. The LC was also sold in that year alongside the new bike.
This 1989 Yamaha LC350 YPVS was purchased by its first owner who carefully stored it in his lounge and used it only a few times in his ownership until he sold it in 2011. It was then lovingly kept by the new owner and again used sparingly only on dry days. It was then sold to the current vendor who once again did not want to use it too much, as it was such a pristine example. The current mileage is a very low 2,431 miles from new. The Yamaha is said to be running well and still is on its original tyres. A true time warp machine, it comes complete with a current V5C.
