    Yamaha R5

    Any one know where I can get a set of pistons for a Yamaha R5???

    (350cc twin fore runner of the RD series)

    A friend is doing one up a bit and has struck a problem.

    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.
