The Bridgestone 350 GTR was a standard motorcycle built by the motorcycle division of Bridgestone from 1967 until 1971. It had an air-cooled 345 cc (21.1 cu in) two-stroke Straight-twin engine, which produced 37 hp (27.6 kW; 37.5 PS) at 7,500 rpm, and could hit a claimed top speed of 95 mph (153 km/h).
The 350 GTR sold in some areas at about the same price as the 650 cc Triumph Bonneville. [9] The high price caused the motorcycles to sell in smaller quantities than other Japanese motorcycles. The other Japanese motorcycle companies again pressured Bridgestone, this time to either supply them tyres or to manufacture motorcycles but not both. [10]

The MV Agusta 350 6 cilindri (MV Agusta 350 6-cylinder) was a prototype racing motorcycle built by the Varese company MV Agusta in 1957, [4] for the 350 cc class of the FIM Motorcycle World Championship. The project was resurrected in 1968. Neither version was ever used in a race. [5] The only surviving model is now in the MV Agusta factory ...
The MV Agusta 350 4C was considered uncompetitive and a new machine that was under development was by no means ready. Read did not finish in any race and MV Agusta remained without points in the 350 cc class.

Ducati had introduced the 350 Sebring in 1967 at the request of their American importer Berliner Motor Corporation (the US was Ducati's primary market at the time). [7] The Sebring was an enlargement of the existing 250 cc model but designer Fabio Taglioni had concerns about the reliability of the bottom end, so the Sebring was produced in a mild state of tune.
The introduction of the "350" model was intended to bridge the production gap of MV Agusta in the medium-displacement sector and to take advantage of the prestige gained by the dominant GP racers. It was produced in "Sport", "Gran Turismo" and "Scrambler" versions. [3] The series was replaced by the MV Agusta 350 Ipotesi in 1975. [4]
