Yamaha RD350 Reincarnated-Darkspawn Final Part

Mar 11, 2015
I should have looked back. I had spent two days and nights tirelessly working on the bike, forgetting to eat, declining to sleep: it was just me and the Darkspawn, going at it until it was finally time to load her into the tempo. The man in charge of the tempo secures the straps around her, and everything looks to be firm and well-held.

Mar 9, 2015
The day I saw the RD for the very first time, is a day that will be forever embedded within my very being.

How Different Is The Yamaha MT-03 From FZ-25

Oct 5, 2018
We all have heard about the MT-03 series from different places around the Internet. So far, most of us know two things about the bike. Number 1, it is a Naked motorcycle from Yamaha and Number 2, it is not available in India, with no plan to launch either. But exactly how different is the MT-03 from the FZ-25 which we get in India.

All of this must point to a huge number of similarities, right? well, no. Allow me to explain.

Why Pulsar 180F Sucks- A Critical Analysis
