I used to hate them. They had nothing below that power band, fun but hard work.

A lad from Enderby used to race one, Ian 'Eddie' Wareham.

Quite a few still being raced in the Yamaha Past Masters series

In was never a stroker fan, though wouldn't have said no to an RG500 Gamma back in the day. Ring, ding, ding, cough, splutter, bang, silence.

To think the first LC250 came out in 81..900 quid.
I fell in love with the black one..but got a KH250 in 84 for 250 quid...i was too poor for an Elsie..tho I loved the KH..the sound was ace.

The 'small' Kawasaki triples sounded brilliant, they revved much higher than the bigger ones, the S3 was my favourite and I've had a few rides on one (coincidentally also owned by Ian and built to 'proddy race' spec)

I love off road (Or dual purpose) two strokes, otherwise it's four strokes for me all the way.

l love 2 strokes, when I was 17, post moped, first had a KH250, then GT250 then an LC250, more fun than any of later bigger four strokes I owned. My ex-business partner has just restored an RGV250, I'll try and get a pic.

Tbh I don't like the one for sale, I prefer the naked ones, the fairing looks like an after market afterthought to me.

I very nearly sold my GSXR1100H for an RGV 250..I was a big Scwantz Fan in 92 era
