FOR SALE: 1989 Honda VTZ 250

Ok, just in case you guys haven't seen it in the Bike Trader section - My VTZ250 is up for sale.

It's an '89, Has the "hyper inertia port" V-Twin 250 that puts out 40hp and has a six-speed box.

I've paid for a new chain, front and rear sprockets, oil, filter, grips, brake pads, and fork seals in the last 5 months.

It has been totally reliable and has always started first pop since i bought it.

Makes an excellent commuter, I ride it every day.

2 things - 1 - Tank could use a respray
2 - One fork seal has leaked since about a week after I had them done by AMPS, but I never got around to taking it back cos they took bloody ages to do them and like I said I use the bike daily. They only leak a tiny bit, and the bike flew through the last warrant.

It has a current WOF, and is registered for another month.

$1550 takes it, as I have bought another bike as a project, and need the cash to get the other one going properly.

pm me if you're interested

Ohh me wishes. Want an FXR?

Tempting Antallica, those fxr's sound like good bikes, if perhaps a little down on power. I'm sure the light weight more than compensates though!

Yeah, just don't ride under helicopters taking off, almost got my ass blown away!

I'll be at the next Mechanics Meet in Aucks if you wanna see her and have a blat. Unless you want to organise a meeting or something.
