RS250?

**Joe Blogs** · 5th October 2005, 20:08

Why do you want one? You need to stay <250cc, or just want an awesome small road bike?

I need to stay <250cc and my CBR just cant cut it. When I first got it compared to my FXR 150 it was quick but now I want something that is really fast.

I cant get my full licence for another 8 months with defensive driving course or 14 months without. and my life doesnt move fast enough at the moment

Thanks for your feed back.

that may be so, but I still scraped the peg and my tyres stayed on the road...

The scrape marks have rusted already though

Do you have a death wish?

Doesn't everybody who wants and RGV? I thought it was practically a requirement.....
If it's only for license issues, a RGV or NSR would do the same but cheaper.
Most RS's go for over 10k up here, where as I paid about 3k for my RGV.
With either, you could end up with a big repair bill, so it all depends on the previous owner.
Fantastic bikes. If you want it to hoon, you won't be dissapointed over 8krpm.

Just so you know though, as a class, it's probably killed more young riders than any other

(nothing to back this up, jus what an okd fart ina bike shop told me once. Didn't listen to him either.)

Woo-hoo! Atta boy!
These bikes are pretty good on the track - ever thought about it?
Tip: RGV's fix cheaper in a crash... but the RS does look good.
