I see you know your stuff!!!

I totally agree with you, don't go for a 250!!!

I've never seen a 250, exspecially a ZXR thats in good condition for under $4000.

If its under $4000 it needs work done it.

If your really looking for something in the 250 class for $2000-ish, your looking at mid to late 80's models or a GN250 lol

Wrong again... I paid $500 for my 83 GN and it purrr's like a beast.. (Could be the rusted exhaust... LOL)

Just kidding with you... GN's are the only cheap 250's you will get. I just can't justify paying $4000 for a 250 when you can get a CB750 that almost needs not work done at that price.

Bull.. need I remind you of my mighty zxr 250 ...... now it was a beast and changed hands a few times at well under $4000

Zxr's are over priced but if you find one that is "cosmetically challenged" you'll find thier price dropps substantially. And is a good way to get a decent bike and slowly do it up when the funds become available.

yeah but you work on all your own bikes, and no doubt there was stuff you had to do on it... I'm saying in general, you don't see ZXR's that don't need work done on them for under $4000 very often, and most of the time when you do they are the "A" model...

The only work I did on it was general maintainance (oil change etc ) and the stuff I had to do when I chucked it down the road..

DEals are to be had on the 89 bikes just need to look out for them.

A newer model as placid said won't go for much under $4k I think the cheapest I've seen is a little over $3k.

eh... 250 prices suck!!! and it sucks even more if you have to fix one you've chucked down the road or in my case into a cliff thingy... lol

[degrom]

Yes... the prices do suck!!! But once you get your full licence and you get out of the 250 demand chain you have more choices to pick of.

[Boosted]

You can have my zxr250 for 4g :) heheh

[massey]

So you think the ZXR's are over priced eh? So whats a good 250 model to start off on that has the looks but also has abit of snot? i have around 3G maybe up to 4 to spend.
