For how much a person sells a RD350 if he is selling it.

So finally we less fortunate mortals get to see Killer's killer bike [

] Simply awesome & nicely done man [8D] hey u not goin for the rear disk [?] btw i really like the rear body work looks like a proper drag bike, & have toyed wid the idea of shaping the tank like the cafe racers, i mean the rear wud compliment it & wud give u a better riding position, just a suggestion
