    1975 Yamaha RD250 - $1800

    SOLD

    1975 Yamaha RD250
    Cafe racer style
    Twin cylinder two stroke - oil injection so no mixing gas.
    Low handlebars
    DG Performance exhaust and K&N airbox bypass (stock parts included)
    ~10k miles
    Runs and starts great.
    No major issues with bike, just no time to ride it. It's a classic so will always provide plenty of 'tinkering' opportunities but has been a solid bike for me.
    $1800
    Located just outside Burlington VT

    Is that the nesr price? My wife has been looking for one for months now but it's abit out of her range.

    I would like to end up at $1500. It's a good old rig that could use a little tinkering now and then. I had a bunch of tuning time in it last year and it's pretty solid though my gut says the timing might be a touch off, but close. I've had it a bunch of years and used it as a commuter. Done a few longer rides with it but it's not exactly modern. The 'cafe' cut seat pad isn't particularly plush..

    Biggest issue is it doesn't appreciate sitting for weeks on end. I didn't ride much last year and haven't gotten it out of the barn yet this year but it always seems like the fuel evaporated or the battery went flat after a few weeks. When I was riding it often it was great.

    I just don't have time to even change the oil on my lawnmower much less maintain a classic bike these days. Would love to keep it but I know letting it sit for a few years until the kids are older isn't going to do it any good.
