- 50 years ago, this bike rolled off the assembly line and has been kept in immaculate condition! From the straight bars and classic signal lights to the beautiful styling and colour scheme. This bike in an awesome representation of old school street bikes. Equipped with a relatively small bore 350cc three cylinder 2 stroke giving it's unique sound. It may not be a total power monster but it sure is a fun ride!

This is exactly like the first bike I bought new in '73, right down to the color. I really enjoyed that bike. Thanks for posting and bringing back some happy memories.
Glad you enjoyed it!
The strait handlebars looked so much better than the high ones that you see on the most triples. Very nice bike!👌🏻 Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱 👋🏻😃
Thanks
Awesome sound. lol. I bought one of those in 79. I hated the points and condenser on it, For some reason I always had issues with the centre cylinder shorting out in rain. And one day, The plug shout out of the centre while riding it. Got the head helicoiled and sold it. Owned a 77 KZ 750 twin for a few years and a Yamaha 250 enduro I bought in 96 then picked up a new 99 KLR 650 which I still own and ride to this day.
I hear you man.
The bikes from 70's kept you busy, they had decent tool kits though!
thanks for showing this awesome bike off! the sound is incredible!!! gonna have to add one of these to my collection!
Glad you like it!
Bought a 73, 350 when I was 15. Red's cycle shop, Montoursville,Pa.
Awesome, do you know where it is now?
No
BEAUTIFUL S2!! Thanks for sharing
I test rode a 350 back in the 70's. Also owned a 500 triple. Very primitive by todays standards but very desirable in the 70's.
the "Whoa" is marginal, The "Go" is still exhilarating! haha
Hey there , at age 17 I fell in love with the candy apple (I think it's called) with the stripes in 73 and had to have it.Brand spanking new off the showroom floor.
My first set of lights and off I went...,wow I wasn't warned about that.
Rose about 2 foot but I still had control
Middle cylinder used to foul the plug so I put a 6 ngk in and 7s on the outers.
Seemed to work but only sometimes.
Never got it sorted though.
Maybe someone had the same problem or sorted it out.
Would love to know what it was.
Got bored one day so removed all 3 carbs and dismantled But mixed them up only to put them in a box and wheel it down to a bike guys workshop just down the road.
He asked me "why" and I just said "I don't know."
Fuel usage was horrendous but the power was there and that's all that mattered.
She was my daily for work and as soon as Friday arvo came I was off. Party Time
All my Mum said when I returned on Sunday afternoon was "So your'e still alive"
Many great memories which I still treasure was made on my 350.
I only wish I still had her.LTR-RTL.
The colors are still mesmerizing today!!! I'm sure there are many folks that have similar memories!
Like it 👍
Would like to see an ole Suzuki water Buffalo
