1977 Yamaha TZ350 Factory Race Bike

"Up for auction is a 1977 Yamaha TZ350 factory race bike. This is the first year of the mono shock. The 78 is virtually identical and then in 79 Yamaha went to the drop tank. This bike is fully sorted and race ready. I acquired this bike about a year ago in order to make the jump up from modified RD to more series vintage racing through ARHMA. Shortly after I purchase the bike I broke my wrist and can no longer comfortably ride much less compete. This bike was last raced in 09. Since than it has had new cylinders and a fresh crank. It is not completely stock  but with nice period upgrades such as Swarbrick pipes from England and Brembo front disk and caliper. It currently has 38mm Mikunis and a new set of power jets (not installed). The bike also comes with some spares such as sprockets, pistons etc. I also have the original factory manual with it. This bike comes with a bill of sale only because titles were not issued."
