New RD350 speed record - xBhp.com : The Global Indian Biking Community

Killer · 05-31-2003, 11:59 PM

hi guyz....just wanted to share somethin....after a lotta patience and hardwork on my bike i finally broke the speed record (for a modified rd350 on stock silencers and stock gearing)....the venue was sarjapur road at 2am last night with the rest of the bangy rd gang...speed was measured using a sigma digital speedo...the new top speed is 177kmph ...i'm very happy with the results and hope to do better in the near future

....i still have some jetting and minor work to do after which i should be in the 180's....i believe this is the fastest for a rd350 on stock silencers in india...thankx a ton to Ron for building it for me

heres a pic of the record ...cheers

Did you guys catch the article in Autocar I think Jan or Feb issue about the drag races in Mumbai. RD was the fastest Indian bike . It clocked 15.256 secs for a 900m strech and RX was not far behind at 15.65 Secs
