Reason - it takes so much of pain rebuilding any bike with availability of parts, then you could imagine about a motorcycle that is no longer in production & has no availability of parts from the manufacturer. | |

The love for the RD is just mad and cant be explained. I'm not sure about the part of Dhoni owning "6" RD's but I do know for a fact that he keeps specifying that despite owning a couple of other imports, he has a soft corner for his RD. And this info is not from the press or media but from one of MSD's good pals who's also a cricketer from Chennai. | |

| ![]() Yes Dhoni has 6 RD's. Lucky guy. He has many more Imported Stuff. Truely a Bike Lover!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also, there is information that, he lets them to be ridden by his friends occasionally to keep the bikes fit and running. Generosity - But he's hardly got time to even drive his many Cars. |

Team-BHP Support ![]() ![]() | ![]() All I can say is, Dhoni has taste. Even with a wallet that allows any superbike in the world, he still brought an immaculate RD350 home. This bike is an Indian icon and the memories of high-revving a raw RD stay ingrained in my soul. I mean, anyone can buy an R1. Just how often do you see an enthusiast riding a pristine RD350! |

| ![]() SWEET!! great to see that even with such wealth, he still loves the, err relatively simple pleasures of the RD350!! true signs of a being a proper biking enthusiast i must say!! hes got the biking collection to die for according to me, from RD's to a Ducati 1098 (S?)!! way to go MSD!! |

BHPian ![]() | ![]() But I wonder whether he'll be able to ride it in peace; his security will be following him in other vehicles, probably riding pillion too!! |

BANNED | ![]() I am not at all a fan of game of cricket nor do I follow great deal of it. But, I am a fan of Dhoni. This guy is really nice. His motorcycles collection apart, he is always seen smiling and jovial and appears well-behaving. Never losing his cool, unlike some of his teammates. Now coming to motorcycles, it is really so gentle of him to be spending his time and money ( well, 2/3 lakhs is hardly any money for him) on this old legend RD350. More so in these present times when one has so many to choose from. And with all the money he has, he can buy any stock bike off the showroom form any part of the world. Yet, he chooses RD. Hats off to him! Well, what about John Abraham? I always take both these names in the same sentence. If, Dhoni is the gentlest guy of the cricket world, John is the gentlest guy of the movie world, same warm smile and gentle behaviour. I am sure he must be having an RD, too. More so because he is a brand ambassador for Yamaha. |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Only RD owner can feel the fun of having RD.And yes Dhoni has got multiple RD's as last month someone was about to get never ridden RD's from Kolkata Police head quarters and all n sudden MSD swipped them ![]() Cant comment on his restoration job as i feel Bangalore is the place to restore the RD whether its cosmatically or engine wise. Very soon i'll be updating my almost 2 year old thread of proquoring RD, spares, emotional breakdowns and all up n downs i went through all these days. |
