So over a year ago we sold Jens old VTR 250 to someone who lives over 100 miles away. Somewhere between then and now it ends up in the hands of our own Gadgets' girlfriend. Take care of that bike buddy....there were tears shed the day it left here after 11 years in the garage....

Tell Jen that it will be well taken care of.

I have a vested interest in keeping it running smoothly - it's my lady love on it after all. (at least until she moves back up to the Ninja, then it might just be me riding the VTR. Can't have too many bikes after all)

wow, that is one nice bikey.

I want it. I wish I had enough money to buy another bike, and at the same time you were randomly selling it...

That VTR is in great shape. Logi, those bikes were produced 88-90 and with some know how to work on them (which I noticed you've got), you can find them for a really good price and get one going. They give the Ninja250s a run for their money.

Isn't Shorts' bike a VTR 250? How come that bike has plastics, and Shorts' doesn't?

Honda has kept that motor alive in different bikes for nearly 20 years. The plasticky model like Jens' old one in the picture is no longer around and they switched over to the Ducati-Monster-Style of bike like Shorts a few years back.
And they more than give a 250 Ninja a run for the money. It was a far nicer bike than the Kawi.....but then I was a little biased.
