Wrong on both counts gentlemen, though if it won't run it may end up that way...

Aircooled RD, can't tell whether it's a 250 or 400, the 350 had a different clutch cover, but this one would fit it. Looking at the downpipe end it's likely a 400, the 250 and 350 had a catellated nut on the downpipe to screw to the silencer.

Lol yep!

Be reeeet.

Need to fit some pistons, do a lot of bits n bobs, and find a rear master cylinder that'll fit. Should probably cover the seat too and wire up all the back end lights

Lovely bikes.

I still own a 400F but it's in so many bits having been split and distributed around family's houses when I moved around. One day I'll phone everyone up and see if they still have the boxes I left in their lofts and garages.

You need this lot, but they all got used on my last restoration project, that's an immaculate 13K mile RD250D under the dustsheet. Those silencers and downpipes were brand new Genuine Yamaha items, rare as rocking horse droppings
