Watch MS Dhoni Ride His Modified Yamaha RD350LC

This particular machine makes more power than the Kawasaki Z650RS

Remember the tastefully modified Yamaha RD350 being built for Indian ace cricketer MS Dhoni? Well, the former Indian captain was spotted riding this beauty outside his house.

This Yamaha RD350 was built by Chandigarh-based Blue Smoke Customs. To start off, this custom motorcycle flaunts the iconic ‘Speed Block’ livery. But the changes are more than skin-deep. These include a liquid-cooled engine, Lectron carburetor, Moto Tassinari VForce4 reed valve system, Uni air filter, Zeeltronic Programmable CDI, NGK spark plug, JL Street twin exhausts, Metmachex aluminium swingarm and LMC silicone radiator coolant hose.

The custom Yamaha RD350 makes a staggering 72PS, which is in the league of the Kawasaki Z650RS (68PS and 64Nm). For perspective, the stock RD350 made around 49PS from its 347cc, parallel-twin engine.

This is not the first RD350 that the cricketer owns. He also acquired a rather colourful RD350 earlier this year. Apart from stocking up retro machines, Dhoni also has a rare Confederate X132 Hellcat and  Kawasaki Ninja H2.
