Yamaha SRX 250 1987, Sports bike, Vintage

For Sale: 1987 Yamaha SRX 250

If you are looking for a rare, 50cc sportbike that you can fill up with the same swill that you save for your lawnmower, his little SRX just might be the ticket. an air cooled single cylinder with 4 valves, he SRX was Yamaha's answer to the 250 Ninja. A lightweight and willing performer, he SRX was a one hit wonder - it was gone from the US lineup the following year. That makes it rare and unique...which has upsides and downsides. The upsides: the fan base for these bikes is fairly rabid, nd they continue to look unique and like a much larger bike than the 250cc engine belies. Downsides: Hard to find, ard to obtain parts. An additional downside is that it is very difficult to find one in decent condition; as these were inexpensive newbie and commuter bikes, hey were rarely well taken care of (garaged, erviced, tc.). The rare keep getting rarer.
