The YVPS Yamaha RD500LC is a high-performance, two-stroke sports motorcycle, produced between 1984 and 1986, using a liquid cooled V4 engine with power valves to give a wider power band with four Mikuni carburettors. The transmission is by a six-speed close ratio gearbox with a wet clutch. The frame is made from box section steel and there are twin discs on the front with single on the rear. Different countries had different spec, the Japanese version (RZV500R) being the most altered. This iconic 2-stroke, was at the forefront in the 1980's as one of the must have GP replica bikes.
NDG is believed to have painted in period by bike paint specialists "Dream Machine" in the Marlborough race colours.
NDG was owned by Andrew Bottomly in 2000, he sold it to our vendor in April 2002 when it was put into storage. It will need recommissioning before use.
