Wasn't sure where to put this but here goes.
Just a quick intro from me, I have had a YPVS 350 in bits for a few years now but planning to start rebuilding it soon so thankyou in advance for any help received. In fact the bike appears in the Gallery front page, yellow with the stacked pipes and titled Andys yellow ypvs.
I did have loads of photo's both before and during its strip down but the pc died and all was lost....and no backup.
Cheers
Bart1

well by that picture it will be a quick job looks so nice right there well smart I did start a rebuild a few years ago, had the frame powder coated but then stopped/got side tracked by other projects. I've never done a rebuild before but always do all my own servicing on my other bikes. The engine is totally stripped down but it needs a full rebuild, crank, rebore I think and bearings in the gearbox, just need to go through the learning curve as to what works and what doesn't.

Thanks guys, yes a bit of googling of rd350 and yellafella found the picture above, the bike has had quite a few owners apparently. I think someone in the LC club had it for a while. I'm not sure if there are any "political issues" mentioning the club so apologies if there is/was. I know how some forums can be sometimes.
