Love the Vincent but the Honda and Kawasaki are great. I had a couple Yamaha two strokes including a 400 Daytona Special and a 350 RD. 

I'm a bit longer in the tooth these days, but when I was younger I also had the RD350LC, and the air-cooled 400 ! 

The 400 handled like a brick and took a while to stop with the single piston solid disc front end, but it was fully ported with expansion chambers so the power delivery was pretty savage 😁

That would also be something great as a partwork model...

I had an RD350LC too.  It was a beast when it hit the power band!  I do have the Tamiya kit in may display cabinet.  The only vehicle I owned that I also have as a model.
