Wanted: CBR250, GSXR250, FXR250, GPX250 ETC!

Already started a thread similar to this but hoped changing my title may attract some more attention for the bike im

Hey there, recently convinced my parents to buy me a motorbike
After doing some research (this will be my first bike), I'm fairly certain a Honda CBR250 or any other nice 250 will suit me. I will basically be using it to commute to and from school, around the North Shore, and maybe a bit of motorway use. I'm about 1.93m tall (6ft5?) and weight 80kg, i tried sitting on one the other day and it seemed fine..
I've ridden my mates Honda CBR250 and i managed fine.

So basically i was wondering if anyone is selling a CBR250, FXR250, GSXR250, GPX250 or any other sporty type 250 or MAYBE even a FXR150/RG150 if i get desperate (Please no cruisers like gn250, just don't like the look tbh lol). I have a budget of about $2650 give or take a bit depending on the bike and condition. (I've got my gear and insurance money already). Would prefer if it had WOF and Rego. Thanks in advance, El Lanzo.

Oh and my email is lanz111@hotmail.com if you wish to email me pictures or anything.

What year + kms?

**MSTRS:Me** · 23rd April 2008, 09:18

1988 VT250K (Spada). About 50k. Cam chains done recently. Good rubber. New wof on Monday.
These bikes are what the VTR250's are based on but Spadas are much more than a VT. Alloy frame. 6 speed g/box. Different engine components.
This particular one was timed at 172kph.
