Default I May Be In Love

While browsing for something else I came across a little odd looking thing that I think I really really want.


A Honda VTR 250.



Anyone have any experiece of 'em? Just trying to find out more info on 'em. They look so much fun

I think I can see why folk have more than one bike now.

Is it a faired one or an unfaired? The unfaired one's like a little Honda Monster. The faired one's more like a mini GPZ. To be honest I know which I'd choose

Why is it Japan Inc can only make pretty frames on wheezy underpowered things? VTR250...



Bandit 400... (this one's a bit nonstandard but the frame's stock- looks awesome though, like a Martek almost. A little bird tells me the SRAD750 motor fits in these. That might be a lie.)



and that carbed SV thing some people may have seen. OK, the beam frame's efficient but it looks like I made it.

I saw one for sale a couple of years back and fancied it. But they go for a lot compared what you can get SV's for!
