    Buddy the bike was a 1979 import, but had NOTHING from the US on it ... was a full desi RD ...

    everything on the bike had to be imported ....

    I'll dig out the pic and post it here .... she sure is a beauty!!!!

    Yup, our Indian RDs had the front drom from the Yamaha R5C 5 speed 350cc which was the precursor to the RD350
