I have been wanting one for ages but the price of them always put me off.. Anyway I am off to go and look at her!

No substitute to the SV! But so much fun!

Sorry this not being SV related!

Nice one all you need now is to do the RGV250 conversion to it ie front end and swing arm that will give you a better set up and trye choice!!

Had a 250 LC in the olden days - single front disk, drum rear... cringe.

immense fun though, lovely sound, lovely smell with a bit of R30 in the tank

Preferred the X7 I later replaced it with, even lighter and more silly.

ahhhh 2 strokes, they've almost passed into history like Concorde. Amazing power and so few moving parts! Three or four main ones? The kick up the **** and insane wail, I still think about my derestricted RG125!
