Hi Guy's,
I missed out on the RZ 350 the other week  The eejit sold it to someone else before we could see it. So t'other night hubby was talking to a guy who was asking if we would be interested in some sort of dirt bike, Hubby mentioned we were looking for a RZ350. The guy then said the RZ400 was much better. Now I've heard of the RZ500 but not 400, has anyone got any comments on whats better?
Cheers all

Interesting, if it needs much work tho, it could be a real wallet buster. While the 400 would be a great bike to ride and worth quite a bit as a rare example, you still might be better off with the 350 twin.

looks like a load of crap IMO - look at the bottom of the second photo "Rare Canadian Market Only RZ" - In the first place they were and are hardly rare and in the second place Canada had a 500 not a 400 - the only country that made it necessary (licensing) was Japan and even they had a 500 in this case so you can bet no one else had one.

Must be some sort of weird local country laws or licensing shite, probably the same bike as the 500, but with a smaller bore...??? Or just bollox..
