After only a couple of years in production, the original RD350LC was superseded in 1982 by the RD350 LCII, a model better know by the 'YPVS' acronym standing for 'Yamaha Power Valve System', the latter having been developed on the firm's Grand Prix bikes. Keeping pace with the times, Yamaha slotted this heavily revised engine into a new frame equipped with linkage-operated mono-shock rear suspension, while the rear drum brake was replaced by a disc. After little more than a year the LCII was replaced by the mechanically similar RD350F (faired) and RD350N (naked) models.

This matching-numbers RD350F2 was purchased by the vendor from the second (Dutch) owner three months ago. Currently displaying a total of 36,096 kilometres (approximately 22,400 miles) on the odometer, the Yamaha is presented in highly original standard condition. The machine is offered with Netherlands registration papers.
