Yamaha RZ350 Motorcycle background – new hd triumph wallpaper – triumph motorcycle wallpapers

The RZ had a 500 cc stablemate called the RZ500. It came in a red-on-white color scheme. It was a twin-crank V4 (much like the GP bikes of the era) and was a quite different bike. Some distributors and dealers sold these bikes with custom paint jobs, causing confusion about OEM paint schemes.

In many countries, these bikes were known as RDs, but in North America and Australia they were called the RZs. In Australia, England, Canada, and the USA the Yamaha RD series (RD-60, RD125, RD-200, RD250, RD350, RD400) from which the later RZ/RD were descended, were first released in the 1970s as air-cooled two-strokes. In 1980 the bikes had a redesign using ideas Yamaha gained from two-stroke Grand Prix and production race experiences. They also became liquid-cooled and had an ‘LC’ appended to the name to designate this e.g.: RD350LC – some people referred to them as the “Elsie”. The Elsie is the link between the earlier air-cooled RDs, and the later power valve (YPVS) equipped RZ series. The most common capacities sold in Australia were 250 cc (maximum capacity allowed for new road riders) and 350 cc.

The name changed to RZ (in Australia at least), with the introduction of the variable exhaust valve design in 1983 on the ‘K’ model. This was a whole new bike and although similar in concept, did not share any parts of the earlier LC series yamaha sport bike, triumph wallpaper, harley bike, Motorcycle wallpapers, harley wallpaper hd

In the 1982 model, lightning quick steering was considered too extreme for some, though was highly appreciated by sporting riders. The weight distribution was 55/45 and the lightly loaded front end benefited from the installation of a slightly larger than usual front tire. The front suspension was described as too soft, the rear, even with an adjustable shock, difficult to dial in. On the electrical side, the Vision had “a well deserved reputation for eating starters and stators.” There is also a problem with the starter clutch. It has a tendency to loose a three bolt fastening in the starter clutch mechanism. The fairing was an option in ’82, and that proved to be the bike’s downfall, along with being pricier than the other twins of similar size on the market then. But not having the beautiful fairing available at the outset proved the ’82 undoing. It was just too unattractive without the fairing. This point came home when all 1000 1983 models sold out immediately…with the non-optional black fairing. The motorcycling public knew a good thing when they saw it..while the marketers did not..

Shortly after Triumph returned to the American market, the designers set their sights on entering the highly contested 600cc market. The Triumph TT600 was designed in 1996, and produced between the year 2000 and 2003. It was Triumph Motorcycles’ first in-line four-cylinder 600 cc sportbike, designed to compete in the world’s most competitive motorcycle class, the fuel-injected middleweight category
