The World's Craziest Scooter! Yambretta RD350 2 Stroke

We think we might have found the worlds coolest two stroke Scooter! Here at 999lazer we love 2 Stroke motorcycles and we love a great story...and this video features both! This is this the Yambretta RD350 owned by Jed Thomson. The bike might look like a vintage Lambretta but it's powered by the legendary Yamaha RD350 / RZ350 YPVS motor. This might just be as much fun as you could ever have on the road.
A big thanks goes to Jed for sharing this incredible story with us.

Heres to your brother man. Anyone who doesn't have brothers has absolutely no clue how strong brothers love is. To lose that is....well...after how many years it's still bringing a 20 year British Marine to tears. I'm a U.S.A. force recon Marine scout sniper and I can tell you British Marines are hard as fuc&. Thanks for this episode man. Definitely one of your best.

In 1986 I was 16. My dad offered me his 1973 RD 350. I turned him down. I thought it was too old. He gave the bike to a so called friend. Who parted it out. It was a running fully functioning bike. All these years later. I am still kicking myself in the butt!!!!

Now that's real love and immense respect for his brother Jamie, Jed's a top man for doing this scooter, sorry for your loss Jed.

This has been done before, one of these we created back in 1988 with a 450 kit on the power valve engine. Also one of the group had a GPZ1100 lump with a turbo. Nice clean well engineered conversion nice job

What a wonderful story and machine I fully appreciate this as I put a TZ350G in the road 30 years ago and currently riding a Monkey Bike but its a TS125 twin Suzuki Stinger powered with expansions.

When you see a loud scooter with 2 massive pipes blowing smoke all the way, that is far from being unsuspecting
The craziest 2 stroke scoot I have seen so far

[kevinmee]

What a lovely tribute to his brother, don't know what you're going to do next Max, you like to keep us guessing.

[arthurdunga]

what a great thing to do for his late brother 2 strokes for ever even with small wheels, respect

The Yamaha 350 twin 2 stroke engines are so much fun. I had a blast riding the Banshee that my brother used to have. I also had a friend who put one of them in a golf cart which was a truly terrifying experience. Very cool scooter, thanks for sharing Jed!

[mickpowell]

I had Li Frame with a 225, engine AF exhaust, 34mm Amal Powerjet Carb and that scared me to death, this is something else. Such a beautifully engineered bike and a real tribute to your Bruv, thank you for your service Jed.

Touching story and a absolute piece of art. What a incredible build.

Never been a fan of Lambretta/Vespa platform, but that build is simply stunning. Huge respect to Gary & Jed for this crazy project.

I have ridden the RD125LC, an RD 200 air cooled, and always had a hankering for an RD 350…. And I’ve always loved scooters
These days I have a Hayabusa I pootle about on, but I love scooters and I’d love this one. Thanks for showing it off mate and god bless your brother - please know he took your love with him

Back in the day there was a scooter race series, scouts honour! Quite a few had RD motors and other 2t transplants. The racing was brilliant, absolute mayhem.
Great that you featured this beautiful Scoot, cheers.

Great video and story Max. Like you guy's, I'm a bit of a sucker for anything 2 stroke, the sound of that sweet 350 is a soundtrack of my youth. Keep the variety in your content, it is what sets you guy's apart
