The stock bike made 39 bhp (29 kW) (32 bhp (24 kW) at the back wheel) at 7500 rpm [1] – very fast for the time. A contemporary of the RD is the Kawasaki H2 750cc Triple that produced 74 hp. The 350 evolved into the more refined and cleaner running RD400C in 1976, the "D" and "E" in 77–78 and the final model, the white 1979 RD400F.
Motorcycles with a V-twin engine mounted with its crankshaft mounted in line with the frame, e.g. the Honda CX series, are said to have "transverse" engines, [1] [2] while motorcycles with a V-twin mounted with its crankshaft mounted perpendicular to the frame, e.g. most Harley-Davidsons, are said to have "longitudinal" engines.
The RD350LC was later replaced by the RZ350 / RD350LC II / RD350 YPVS in 1983, but the LC(1) was also sold in that year alongside the new bike. The RD350LC was aimed at the European market alongside the smaller capacity Yamaha RD250LC. [1] The 1980 to 1982 350 cc models were codenamed 4L0 and are affectionately known as Elsie. [2]

These are the ancestral predecessors to the 1970 350cc R5 and represent two different generations of engine evolution and design. The 1967 YR1, 1968 YR2 and 1969 R3 (YR3) directly preceded the R5 and were Yamaha's first publicly available 350cc capacity air-cooled, two stroke twins. The R5 was superseded by the 1973-1975 RD350 and 1976-1979 RD400.
The racing bikes used a duplex frame and the engine had wider mountings at the rear to match the twin rear tubes of the frame. [2] For 1968 Ducati introduced new engines to the 250 and 350 cc road bikes based on the racing engine. These retained the wider rear mountings and came to be known as 'wide case' engines. [2]
