I would guess there is a chassis number where it changes over to 3-stripe.

According to www.rd350lc.net/ it was the 1982 model that had the 3 stripe decals, chassis number start 4L0-2***** OEB

OK all, cheers for the reply's, my bike is an a reg 1984 very late reg model, the chassis number is 4L0- 206@@@. I have pics of my bike being 18 months old showing it in 3 stripe colors, but just wanted to restore the bike back to factory standard. Oh yes, is there a for sale and wanted section on this site ?

is there a for sale and wanted section on this site ? Cheers jez Yes there is but you will need 25 posts before you can access it, just post a load of "great looking bike" quotes in the photo section & you'll soon be there. OEB

I can't recall OZ having any three stripes. The"other site" will all the info and color schemes suggests that the the European 82 models came with the three stripes....although I could be wrong

The stripes in oz i would not now, but if it came to the push and i was living in oz i would settle for the 2 stripe model and just ride it more as the weather would be loads better !
