Weird page... Are you sure its Aussie? While we lost the RD tag in 1983 with everything RZ after than It calls this the RD series and the 350 is listed as an RD350LC... the use of 'RD' and 'LC', surely not after 83 in Aus... and the 125 is listed, Ive never seen one here that wasnt an import :/ I guess the inclusion of the 250 is one of the things that makes this right for us, other markets like Canada wouldnt have had those, but its at odds with our naming conventions I think. Id like to see an 86 350's compliance plate now, saldy i dont know anyone with one, Ive only ever seen 250s from 86.

I don’t think this is Australian. The 500 doesn’t look Australian spec but this could be because it’s a publicity shot. However the 350 is RD and RD125LC and the 250 Phazer were not sold here that I’m aware of. South African perhaps?

Here is the 1986 Australian line up,the RZ500 was dropped from the line up at the end of 1985 The RZ500 in the brochure has a rear grab rail which was not fitted to the Australian/South African bikes, maybe a Canadian brochure?   |

I have an Aussie ‘86 1WT RD350F2 on a compliance plate, which is definitely not an RZ.
It is probably the exception that proves the rule....

Thanks for your imputs ! I through it was Australian since there is the 250cc version which had never been sold to Canada and the fact that I have seen RZ250/350F only on the '86 Australian brochure:  Thank you Steve for the picture. Does your brochure ref start by LIT-3MC-0105xxx ? (All my Australian brochure start by LIT-3MC-0105xxx) OzHammer, could you send me a picture of your rare compliance plate ? Here is an extract from the '85 full line-up from Australia I think:  Xavier |
