Amazingly clean and mechanically tight un-restored, original RD-250. "Survivor" is an understatement. The paint on the tank, side covers, frame are really unique (show room quality comes to mind, no fading whatsoever, graphics are perfect). And the chrome is truly special. Of course the frame and engine VINs match. I've looked at a lot of RD250's, RD350's and RD400's (and DS7's) from 1971-1976 and I have not found one as clean as this one. This bike starts right up and sounds great. The oil injection works flawlessly and does not smoke at all (only using Yamalube of course). The clutch and six speed transmission both work like you drove it off the showroom floor in 1974. All electronics work to perfection (horn, signals, displays, lights). The only items that are not original on this bike are the battery, tires, and handlebars. Hagarty's and NADA value these bikes in the 4-5K range if they are "excellent" in condition for what that's worth (probably not much since bikes this old have to be evaluated individually). For an un-restored motorcycle, I would have to rate this one as excellent. Odometer is currently at 3,900 miles. If you're very interested in an unmolested (i.e., not "cafe'd" by the younger crowd) RD-250, this is worth a look. No trades. And please don't email me an offer of $2,000 (I still enjoy riding it). After dialog with an interested and informed potential buyer, I'll gladly provide actual photos that have not been compressed by the Craigslist server, especially if you're coming from a distance. Voice and email only (no texts). I have title and registration, so you can easily register in ANY state.

Hard to describe how clean and mechanically tight this un-restored, original RD-250 is. The paint on the tank, side covers, frame are really amazing (show room quality comes to mind, no fading whatsoever, graphics are perfect). And the chrome is truly special.

If you're very interested in an unmolested (i.e., not "cafe'd" by the younger crowd) RD-250, this is worth a look. No trades. And please don't email me an offer of $2,000 (I'm just not interested, reasonable offers only please). I simply want for this bike what the market says it's worth. You be the judge. After dialog with an interested and informed potential buyer, I'll gladly provide actual photos that have not been compressed by the listing server, especially if you're coming from a distance.
